Wednesday lunchtime arrived all too soon Left to right: David Stewart, Jean Williams, Linda Riley, Steve Glover, Sarah Glover and Mandy Beaumont and I was sorry that I hadn’t had chance to have a proper look at all the poster presentations, but I had lots of food for thought to take away and wish to thank HCLU and LIHNN for giving me the opportunity to attend my first (and hope- fully not my last) HLG Conference. As for Belfast, I will definitely go back. There was an air of calm that I’ve never before experienced in a city and, cliché though it is, the people were really friendly. Belfast City Hall was a great setting for the conference dinner and the open-topped bus tour of the city is a must. LeAnn Rimes’ concert at the Waterfront Hall was In full swing...! excellent (even if it did hold up HLG preparations).

My methodology employs Actor Network Theory (ANT) in proposing connections between humans and non-humans - in this case writers, editors, artists, and curators, along with non-human actors including artworks, institutions, galleries and workspaces. Combining this with the concept of entelechy - the actualisation of potential – has enabled me to describe the way writing emerges, as well as the way writers develop.

    www.ribblevalleyrail.co.uk RIBBLE VALLEY RAILNews Number 109 May 2015 B. Haworth B. Haworth 2 From the Chair In my report to the Annual General meeting of RVR, I highlighted that May 30th would celebrate the 21st anniversary of the re-opening of the line to a regular passenger service. Over that time, we have seen the introduction of the Sunday service, the strengthening of the commuter trains in and out of Manchester to cope with ever growing demand, and the year round Sunday service to Hellifield. Since its inception there has been a constant growth in passenger numbers.These have risen from 1.56 million in 2006/07 to 1.96 million in 2013/14 a rise of 23.9%. During the period 2014/15 these figures will exceed 2 million. One constant throughout this period has been the work of the Friends of Stations groups, which were formed in 1994.These groups have been maintaining and working to enhance our stations, many on a daily basis for 21 years an achievement to be proud of. On behalf of our travelling public, RVR and the Clitheroe Line Community Rail Partnership I should like to say a very big thank you for all the time and effort they put into their work. Thanks also to the Parish and Town Councils along the line for their financial contributions towards the purchase of plants. Our members were busy on Clitheroe Market on 2nd May where we promoted rail travel and distributed the new timetable, which came into effect on 4th May.

    East Coast Main Line Great Eastern Region

    Operational Route History: Miscellaneous Updated 17/7/11 East Coast Main Line The Class 90 fleet has seen plenty of action on the UK network during their 23 year history. One notable route where 90s have featured on a regular basis (and continue to do so in 2011) is the ECML. The mix of engines that have worked on the ECML over the years is varied, but more typically have involved those having a fleet number higher than 90015 - these were common place at one time working passenger, charters, mail and freight trains. In addition, it was not uncommon in the early days to see Inter-City class 90s on the East Coast performing passenger duties - examples that have traversed the ECML route between London and Scotland include 90002, 90003, 90009 and 90011. The class 90 fleet was once deployed to passenger duties for Inter-City East Coast and latterly GNER, following long periods of poor reliability of the Class 91 fleet and during a programme of overhauls. The typical destinations served by the 90s included Doncaster, Bradford, Leeds, Newcastle, Edinburgh and Glasgow Central. In the latter days, operations became restricted to the Leeds area with the occasional trip to Newcastle or Edinburgh due to the 110mph restriction on the 90s. With the regular use of Class 90s on passenger services following privatisation of East Coast operations in 1994, GNER opted to paint 90024 into their own house colours. However, it spent much of its time on the WCML despite being painted in GNER colours without the branding. It is unclear exactly when the first 90 worked its debut passenger run on the ECML as well as the last one under with GNER, but I shall try and find out for you! If anyone knows, then please email me.
