Biographical Note Fred Springer (1928-2012) started making railroad photographs in the 1940s in Colorado and New Mexico. Springer was a native of Washington, D.C., who grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated in 1949 in engineering from Missouri School of Mines in Rolla, Missouri, and worked for Mobil Oil Corporation and subsidiary companies. “As a result my rail photography from the early 1940s until 1963 was largely Texas, the Southwest U.S. including New Mexico, and Colorado. I had three tours of duty in the New York headquarters 1963-67, 1968-1976, and 1983-85 at which time I retired and moved back to Texas.” – Fred Springer Fred M. Springer Collection 5 After retirement he and Dale traveled the world by train, visiting almost every country in South America and Europe plus South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe, Jordan, Syria, Australia, and New Zealand. When they lived in Texas he made many trips to Mexico when steam was still alive in the 1960s and ‘70s. Scope and Content Note The Fred M. Springer Collection includes approximately 47,000 35 mm Kodak color slides organized in 58 plastic cartons (each with up to 24 magazine slots) stored in 14 archival boxes. The photographs range from 1950 – 2006 covering more than 30 countries in 6 continents along with more than 40 states in the USA. The collection has a strong focus domestically in Colorado, New Mexico, Texas, and West Virginia with the BNSF, Cass Scenic Railroad, Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad, Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad, and Rio Grande Southern Railroad. The collection also focuses abroad in Central Europe, Mexico, Middle East, South America, and southern Africa with the Ferrocarriles Nacionales de Mexico, Hedjaz Jordan Railway, La Trochita, South African Railways, and Swiss Federal Railway. The photographs draw emphasis on steam locomotives, narrow and standard gauges, scenic railroad companies, and railroad-related buildings such as stations, depots, engine houses, and museums. Correspondents include Ed Fulcomer and George Werner. Arrangement of the Collection This collection is arranged by Fred Springer’s original order.

  • Canterbury Conservation Management Strategy
    Canterbury Conservation Management Strategy Volume 1 Published by Department of Conservation/Te Papa Atawhai Private Bag 4715 Christchurch New Zealand First published 2000 Canterbury Conservation Management Planning Series No. 10 ISSN: 1171-5391-10 ISBN: 0-478-01991-2 Foreword Canterbury is rich in its variety of indigenous plants and animals, its historic heritage and relics, and its landscapes. Its physical features are dramatic, ranging from the majestic Southern Alps to the Canterbury Plains, from forested foothills to rocky coastlines and sandy beaches. These features also provide a wealth of recreational opportunities. The Department of Conservation’s Canterbury Conservancy is responsible for some 1293 units of land, and for the protection of important natural resources generally. To help manage these resources and activities the Conservancy, in consultation with the then North Canterbury and Aoraki Conservation Boards, has prepared a Conservation Management Strategy (CMS). The CMS sets out the management directions the Conservancy will take for the next ten years, the objectives it wants to achieve and the means by which it will achieve these. The draft CMS was released for public comment on 18 November 1995. Submissions closed on 1 April 1996, and 174 were received. Public oral submissions were heard in May and June of 1996. Consultation with Ngäi Tahu Papatipu Rünanga occurred from July to December 1996, and with Te Rünanga o Ngäi Tahu from July 1996 to May 1997. A summary of submissions and a decision schedule indicating the extent of acceptance of all submissions was prepared and given full consideration in revising the draft CMS. The revised draft CMS and summary of submissions was presented to the Conservation Boards for their consideration.

Knowing the precarious state of suitable steam coal which faces those operating large or network locos, I thought the attached article from the Grey Star, 6 Nov 2015, should be circulated amongst members who may need to contact their local supplier as regards a future supply. With the apparent demise of the Cascade Mine the preferred and often only suitable steam coal, the choices to my knowledge are limited to; Strongman - very limited production, Redale, Reefton - a limited scale opencast operation with equally limited future and Garveys Ck, Reefton - well known for destroying grates. There may be some medium heat coals from couple of small mines in the Reefton area and of course the well known Mai Mai lignite and that is it. Any members are welcome to contact me but best they contact their favourite supplier with a copy of the newspaper cutting. CORRECTION—AGAIN!!

Issues of note this month: • We have received several queries from members questioning the unexpectedly high accounts received from the Rail Regulator, Waka Kotahi NZTA, for Safety Assessment work recently. We will be approaching Waka Kotahi to discuss this issue further. • Waka Kotahi have just produced an annual review document which can be found at Signal-a-year-in-rail-safety- 2019-20. This is a well-rounded document and has had input by FRONZ. It also highlights, in the statistical sec- tions, how significant the role played by heritage operators is in the New Zealand rail passenger scene. • Many readers will have seen circulated through various social media and e-mail, the document that Kiwirail pro- duced to brief the new Minister of Transport. Unsurprisingly it does not include heritage operators in their list of “stakeholders” or anywhere in the document. • Following the cabinet appointments announced by the Prime Minister, FRONZ has approached the new Minister of Transport for an opportunity to discuss our role with him and will be doing so as soon as we can arrange an appointment. In our regular discussions with the Ministry of Transport it has been suggested we should prepare a briefing paper for him prior to our meeting, as the MOT will do also.
