NEWTON desire to call attention to the following Notices : LANTERN SLIDES SENT ON APPROVAL. Messrs. N EWTON will be glad to send any number of Slides on approval for purchase to Customers who may find themselves unable to attend the Lantern S#de Gallery to make their own selections. Customers will be charged with the cost of Carriage only, but will be held responsible for the safety of the Slides until received back by Messrs. -Newton. CLASS LANTERN. Where electric current is available, there is now no difficulty with a Class Lantern, as special electric glow lamps are now available which will work off the ordinary house current, and can be switched on and off as easily as the ordinary electric bulb lamps. No attention whatever is needed, the slides merely require putting into the carrier in succession, and the current switching off at the end of the class. The price of a Lantern suitable for class work is very low, and the cost of maintenance nothing but the price of a new bulb when the old one is worked out.- Prices can be quoted on request, but the exact amount depends on the voltage of current, size of room, etc. Where electric current is not available, the same Lantern can be arranged to burn dissolved acetylene, which gives no trouble, mess, or smell, and after about 18 lectures of an hour each a “refill” only costs 6s. SALE OF SLIDES. Special Discounts are allowepl to Educational Institutions. HIRE OF SLIDES. For terms and Conditions see page 846.

The 1825 Stockton & Darlington Railway: Historic Environment Audit Volume 1: Significance & Management October 2016 Archaeo-Environment for Durham County Council, Darlington Borough Council and Stockton on Tees Borough Council. Archaeo-Environment Ltd for Durham County Council, Darlington Borough Council and Stockton Borough Council 1 The 1825 S&DR: Preparing for 2025; Significance & Management. Executive Summary The ‘greatest idea of modern times’ (Jeans 1974, 74). This report arises from a project jointly commissioned by the three local authorities of Darlington Borough Council, Durham County Council and Stockton-on-Tees Borough Council which have within their boundaries the remains of the Stockton & Darlington Railway (S&DR) which was formally opened on the 27th September 1825. The report identifies why the S&DR was important in the history of railways and sets out its significance and unique selling point. This builds upon the work already undertaken as part of the Friends of Stockton and Darlington Railway Conference in June 2015 and in particular the paper given by Andy Guy on the significance of the 1825 S&DR line (Guy 2015). This report provides an action plan and makes recommendations for the conservation, interpretation and management of this world class heritage so that it can take centre stage in a programme of heritage led economic and social regeneration by 2025 and the bicentenary of the opening of the line. More specifically, the brief for this Heritage Trackbed Audit comprised a number of distinct outputs and the results are summarised as follows: A. Identify why the S&DR was important in the history of railways and clearly articulate its significance and unique selling point.

  • SPRING 2015 - Volume 62, Number 1 Call for Papers Violent Skies: the Air War Over Vietnam a Symposium Proposed for October 2015
    SPRING 2015 - Volume 62, Number 1 WWW.AFHISTORICALFOUNDATION.ORG Call For Papers Violent Skies: The Air War Over Vietnam A Symposium Proposed for October 2015 Four military service historical foundations—the Air Force Historical Foundation, the Army Historical Foundation, the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation, and the Naval Historical Foundation—recognize that a half century has passed since the United States became militarily engaged in Southeast Asia, and hope to sponsor a series of conferences involving scholars and veterans, aimed at exploring aspects and conse- quences of what once was known as America’s Longest War. For the first conference in the series, since all military services employed their combat aircraft capabilities in that conflict, the leaders of the four nonprofit organizations agree that the air war over Southeast Asia offers a compelling joint topic for reflective examination and discus- sion. The intent is to host a symposium on this subject in the national capital region on Thurs- day and Friday, October 15 and 16, 2015, potentially extending into Saturday, October 17. Other stakeholder organizations will be approached to join as co-sponsors of this event. The organizers of the symposium envision plenary and concurrent sessions to accommodate a wide va- riety of topics and issues. Panel participants will be allotted 20 minutes to present their research or discuss their experiences. A panel chair will be assigned to provide commentary and moderate discussion. Com- menters from academia, veterans, Vietnamese émigrés, and scholars from the region may be invited to pro- vide additional insights. Panel/Paper proposals may employ both chronological and topical approaches: Examples of chronological subjects can include: U.S.

    Historic Environment Audit for the S&DR 1830 Branch Line to Middlesbrough On behalf of Middlesbrough Council April 2018 The Stockton & Darlington Railway – Middlesbrough Branch Line Historic Environment Audit The Stockton & Darlington Railway – Middlesbrough Branch Line Historic Environment Audit Summary This report commissioned by Middlesbrough Council takes forward one of the recommendations from the S&DR Heritage Audit prepared in 2016 on behalf of the County Durham, Stockton and Darlington authorities to extend the project along the S&DR branch lines which dated between 1825 and 1830. The audit is designed to pull together key and core information to inform future development work along the route of the 1830 Middlesbrough branch line. The report also includes recommendations for heritage led regeneration along the 1830 corridor and the site of the world’s first planned railway town at St. Hilda’s; this includes enhanced access with interpretation along the 1830 route and distinctive high quality residential uses on the site of the planned new town and new sustainable uses for the surviving new town buildings such as the Old Town Hall, The former Ship Inn and the Captain Cook inn. Figure 1. The route of the 1830 S&DR branch line from Bowesfield Lane in Stockton to Middlesbrough terminating at a new port on the Tees Historic Background Middlesbrough before 1830 comprised a farm surrounded by swampy marshland.

    The 1825 Stockton & Darlington Railway: Historic Environment Audit Appendix 2. West Auckland to Shildon. October 2016 (2019 revision) Archaeo-Environment for Durham County Council, Darlington Borough Council and Stockton Council. U rmaeo-Envimnment 11c1 Archaeo-Environment Ltd Marian Cottage Lartington Barnard Castle County Durham DL129BP TeVFax: (01833) 650573 Email: [email protected] Web: www.aenvironment.co.uk NOTE This report and its appendices were first issued in October 2016. Subsequently it was noted that some references to S&DR sites identified during fieldwork and given project reference numbers (PRNS) on an accompanying GIS project and spreadsheet had been referred to with the wrong PRN in the report and appendices. This revision of 2019 corrects those errors but in all other respects remains the same as that issued in 2016. The 1825 Stockton & Darlington Railway: Historic Environment Audit: West Auckland to Shildon. Introduction This report is one of a series covering the length of the 1825 Stockton & Darlington Railway. It results from a programme of fieldwork and desk based research carried out between October 2015 and March 2016 by Archaeo-Environment and local community groups, in particular the Friends of the 1825 S&DR. This report outlines a series of opportunities for heritage led regeneration along the line which through enhanced access, community events, improved conservation and management, can create an asset twenty-six miles long through areas of low economic output which will encourage visitors from across the world to explore the embryonic days of the modern railway. In doing so, there will be opportunities for public and private investment in providing improved services and a greater sense of pride in the important role the S&DR had in developing the world’s railways.

ESTIMATES AND ACTUALITY: COMPARATIVE COSTS OF BRITISH CROSS-CHANNEL AIRLINES, 1918-1924 ROBIN HIGHAMt The two articles that follow are published as an illus- tration of the tremendous strides that have been made in air transportation in the past forty-odd years. Contrast, if you will, the absence of concrete data and the extent of speculation detailed in Dr. Hig- ham's article on the problems of the fledgling British airlines' cross-channel operations, with the statistical detail available to air carriers engaged in international operations today as they plan for supersonic oper- ations. T IS not possible to be definitive about the costs of establishing British overseas airlines for the simple reason that most of the early statistics simply do not exist. Many were allowed to go by default, some companies' accounts are not available or have been lost, and at least one company's rec- ords were destroyed during World War II air raids.
