  • Trailblazer-Jeff.Pdf
    1938-1941 TRAIL BLAZER • JEFFERSONIAN n 1938 the Pennsylvania Railroad introduced a new two tone color scheme for it’s fleet of passenger cars. The noted industrial designer, Raymond Loewy is credited for the exterior design for the passenger fleet. His design of standard Tuscan red car sides with a panel of darker, almost maroon-purple that ran the length of the car window level and terminated in half circles at both ends. This stunning effect was completed by multiple gold stripes and a new lettering style. The PRR referred to Ithe lettering as “Futura” and the Pullman Company called it “Kabel.” The trains were to ready in the spring of 1938. The Pennsylvania Railroad called the new trains “The Fleet of Modernism.” Many older PRR coaches, diners and a few head end cars were painted in the new scheme. The PRR rebuilt some heavyweight Pullmans that were assigned to the railroad. They changed the external appearance to blend in with the new lightweight equipment. There were knowe as “betterment” cars, an accounting term meaning “improved.” The Coach Yard will offer an 8-car Trail Blazer and 8-car The Jeffersonian, both Fleet of Modernism trains, along with a number of individual cars, in HO scale, FACTORY pro-finished: lettered and painted Jeffersonian with interiors as per prototype.

  • Few Americans in the 1790S Would Have Predicted That the Subject Of
    AMERICAN NAVAL POLICY IN AN AGE OF ATLANTIC WARFARE: A CONSENSUS BROKEN AND REFORGED, 1783-1816 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jeffrey J. Seiken, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor John Guilmartin, Jr., Advisor Professor Margaret Newell _______________________ Professor Mark Grimsley Advisor History Graduate Program ABSTRACT In the 1780s, there was broad agreement among American revolutionaries like Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, and Alexander Hamilton about the need for a strong national navy. This consensus, however, collapsed as a result of the partisan strife of the 1790s. The Federalist Party embraced the strategic rationale laid out by naval boosters in the previous decade, namely that only a powerful, seagoing battle fleet offered a viable means of defending the nation's vulnerable ports and harbors. Federalists also believed a navy was necessary to protect America's burgeoning trade with overseas markets. Republicans did not dispute the desirability of the Federalist goals, but they disagreed sharply with their political opponents about the wisdom of depending on a navy to achieve these ends. In place of a navy, the Republicans with Jefferson and Madison at the lead championed an altogether different prescription for national security and commercial growth: economic coercion. The Federalists won most of the legislative confrontations of the 1790s. But their very success contributed to the party's decisive defeat in the election of 1800 and the abandonment of their plans to create a strong blue water navy.

  • Columbus and the Railroads of Central Ohio Before The
    COLUMBUS AND THE RAILROADS OF CENTRAL OHIO BEFORE THE CIVIL WAR DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University WAITER RDMSET MARVIN, B.A. The Ohio State University 1953 Approved Adviser PREFACE What began as a routine dissertation has ended by becoming some­ thing a great deal more — a labor of enthusiasm. There are several names for people who fall in love with railroads and railroad history — one of them is "railfan," another is "ferroequinologist." I doubt if by this time I can escape from wearing one of those labels, although I trust I have succeeded in avoiding the all-too-easy descent to the Avemus of "ferroequinolatry," One consequence of such enthusiasm is that a student teixis to ask almost as many questions as he answers. That has certainly been the case in the present study in which a number of topics that invite further research have been pointed out, in the selfish hope that other seekers after the truth may be recruited. li. ^ ?der to present a well-rounded view of early railroading in Ohio an effort has been made to include as many aspects of the subject as aossible. Inevitable space and time limitations have consequently forbidden a repetition of the same aspects for all the four major roads. Generally speaking, the story of each individual road has tried to stress different elements of the whole picture, with a minimum of over­ lapping, As a result no one railroad is described completely and there is very little comparative data.
