Scope and Contents The CSRM Passes collection consists of railroad passes that were used by railroad employees and their families to travel for free. The passes vary geographically to include railroads from across the United States as well as from the late 1850's through the 1970's. Many of the passes are labeled the names of employees as well as their family members who are entitled to the usage of the pass. Gilbert Kniess, Vice-President and head of the Western Pacific Public Relations Department from 1949 to 1963, is named on many of the passes within the collection. Passes within the collection also came from Grahame Hardy. Charles Crocker has signed several of the passes that are within the Southern Pacific portion of the collection.

AUTHOR'S PREFACE This history has been appearing serially through the Lindsaj "Watchman-Warder" for the past eleven months and is now issued in book form for the first time. The occasion for its preparation is, of course, the one hundredth anniversary of the opening up of Victoria county. Its chief purposes are four in number: — (1) to place on record the local details of pioneer life that are fast passing into oblivion; (2) to instruct the present generation of school-children in the ori- gins and development of the social system in which they live; (3) to show that the form which our county's development has taken has been largely determined by physiographical, racial, social, and economic forces; and (4) to demonstrate how we may, after a scien- tific study of these forces, plan for the evolution of a higher eco- nomic and social order. The difficulties of the work have been prodigious. A Victoria County Historical Society, formed twenty years ago for a similar purpose, found the field so sterile that it disbanded, leaving no re- cords behind. Under such circumstances, I have had to dig deep.
  • Natural Cement Industry at Rosendale, Ulster County, New York

    Natural Cement Industry at Rosendale, Ulster County, New York

    Journal of ASTM International, Vol. 4, No. 6 Paper ID JAI100672 Available online at www.astm.org Dietrich Werner1 and Kurtis C. Burmeister2 An Overview of the History and Economic Geology of the Natural Cement Industry at Rosendale, Ulster County, New York ABSTRACT: The Rosendale region of southeastern New York State is widely recognized as the source of the highest quality natural cement in North America. The North American natural cement industry was founded in 1819 by Canvass White in central New York, but soon shifted to Rosendale where it flourished for over 150 years. By the end of the 19th century, the superior quality of Rosen- dale cement was known worldwide and was actively used in the construction of some of America’s most enduring landmarks. Rosendale natural cement’s reputation stems from the unique composi- tion of the clay-rich layers of dolostone in the Upper Silurian Rondout Formation from which it is manufactured. Miners utilized room-and-pillar techniques to extract this dolostone from strongly deformed strata in the Rosendale region, creating unique bedrock exposures in mines that are something of an engineering marvel. The exposures resulting from these mining activities have long attracted the attention of geologists for research and education. Production of natural cement trans- formed extracted dolostone into barrels of cement through a labor-intensive process involving calci- nation in kilns, cracking, and grinding. Barrels of cement produced were quickly shipped at competi- tive prices via the Delaware and Hudson Canal, which directly connected the Rosendale natural cement region to major shipping avenues. KEYWORDS: natural cement, Canvass White, Delaware and Hudson canal, cement production, geology, education, Rosendale, Ulster County, New York Introduction The momentum of the North American Industrial Revolution in the opening years of the 19th century sparked a number of large-scale building projects, including the construction of regional canal net- works.

    SECTION V: Design No national standards or guidelines dictate rail-with-trail facility design. Guidance must be pieced together from standards related to shared use paths, pedestrian facilities, rail­ road facilities, and/or roadway crossings of railroad rights-of-way. Trail designers should work closely with railroad operations and maintenance staff to achieve a suitable RWT de­ sign. Whenever possible, trail development should reflect standards set by adjacent rail­ roads for crossings and other design elements. Ultimately, RWTs must be designed to meet both the operational needs of railroads and the safety of trail users. The challenge is to find ways of accommodating both types of uses without compromising safety or function. The recommendations in this section are based on: •Extensive research into all existing RWTs. •In-depth case studies of 21 existing and planned RWTs. •Interviews withrailroad officials, trail managers, and law enforcement officials. •Review ofexisting train and trail safety literature. •Analysis ofpubl icly-accessible trespassing and crash data. •Input from a panel ofrailro ad officials and experts, trail developers and managers, trail users, lawyers, railroad operators, and others. •Extrapolation from relevant State transportation manuals, the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities (1999) (hereafter referred to as the AASHTO Bike Guide), Ameri­ cans with Disabilities Act (ADA) publications for trails and pedestrian facilities, the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD, 2000), and numerous Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and other Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) documents. •Theexperience and expertise of researchers and reviewers, including experienced railroad and trail design engineers, landscape architects, safety specialists, trail de­ velopers and managers, trail users, lawyers, railroad operators, operations officials, and others involved in this study.
