  • Chapter 23 the Railways Through the Parishes
    Chapter 23 The Railways Through the Parishes Part I: The London & Birmingham Railway The first known reference to a railway in the Peterborough area was in 1825, when the poet John Clare encountered surveyors in woods at Helpston. They were preparing for a speculative London and Manchester railroad. Clare viewed them with disapproval and suspicion. Plans for a Branch to Peterborough On 17th September 1838, the London & Birmingham Railway Company opened its 112-mile main line, linking the country’s two largest cities. It was engineered by George Stephenson’s son, Robert. The 1 journey took 5 /2 hours, at a stately average of 20mph – still twice the speed of a competing stagecoach. The final cost of the line was £5.5m, as against an estimate of £2.5m. Magnificent achievement as the L&BR was, it did not really benefit Northampton, since the line passed five miles to the West of the Fig 23a. Castor: Station Master’s House. town. The first positive steps to put Northampton and the Nene valley in touch with the new mode of travel were taken in Autumn 1842, after local influential people approached the L&BR Board with plans for a branch railway from Blisworth to Peterborough. Traffic on the L&BR was healthy. On 16th January 1843, a meeting of shareholders was called at the Euston Hotel. They were told that the company had now done its own research and was able to recommend a line to Peterborough. There was some opposition from landed interests along the Nene valley. On 26th January 1843 at the White Hart Inn, Thrapston a meeting, chaired by Earl Fitzwilliam, expressed implacable opposition to the whole scheme on six main counts, from increased flooding to the danger of 26 road crossings, rather than bridges.

  • Steamtown: Scranton PA National Historic Site Steam Engines and Pennsylvania Played a Critical Role in America’S Growth and Expansion
    Steamtown: Scranton PA National Historic Site Steam engines and Pennsylvania played a critical role in America’s growth and expansion. The Pennsylvania Railroad’s Altoona operations and the Baldwin Locomotive Works outside of Philadelphia, made Pennsylvania a key contributor to developing the railroads of America, the commerce it provided, and its impact on moving people. Steamtown National Historic Site had a different history for its location. At one time during the 19th century, five railroad companies had major yards that passed through Scranton, Pennsylvania. Penn State University’s “pabook2,” has an excellent account of how Steamtown came to Scranton, Pennsylvania. HISTORY OF STEAMTOWN ACQUISITION Steamtown USA had its start in North Walpole, New Hampshire and later Bellows Falls, Vermont. Millionaire F. Nelson Blount loved to ride steam engines on the New Haven Railroad in his youth. During the late 1950s, Blount’s love of steam trains eventually led him to create a museum billed, “world’s largest operating rail museum.” The museum included over 100 pieces of rolling stock from US and Canada, 35 locomotives, and more than 30 other types of equipment. Mr. Blount’s museum faced several problems. One had to do with a personal tragedy when Mr. Blount died in a plane crash on August 31, 1967. His Steamtown Foundation, which he created in 1964, moved his collection to Bellows Falls, Vermont. Vermont signage laws made it difficult to advertise the Bellows Falls museum and it did not have onsite outdoor shelters for the trains. Over the years, attendance dropped nearly 75% causing eventual bankruptcy in 1984.

Braids and Juggling Patterns by Matthew Macauley Michael Orrison, Advisor Advisor: Second Reader: (Jim Hoste) May 2003 Department of Mathematics Abstract Braids and Juggling Patterns by Matthew Macauley May 2003 There are several ways to describe juggling patterns mathematically using com- binatorics and algebra. In my thesis I use these ideas to build a new system using braid groups. A new kind of graph arises that helps describe all braids that can be juggled.

It also assesses the significance of the line and any remaining structures associated with it. It then goes on to assess the potential for future enhanced access, conservation and interpretation of the branch line in advance of the Stockton & Darlington Railway’s 200th anniversary in 2025. The Stockton & Darlington Railway’s Croft branch line was opened on the 27th October 1829. It was 3 ½ miles long and ran from north of Hill House east of Skerne Bridge in Darlington to the north side of Hurworth Place where it terminated at the S&DR’s newly built Croft Depot. It was built as a single-track railway designed to haul coals to the depot largely for a domestic market. It also hauled limestone for agricultural use and building materials as required, and passengers made use of the line too.

  • Siteswap Ben's Guide to Juggling Patterns
    Siteswap Ben’s Benjamin Beever ([email protected]) AD2000 Writings on juggling, for: 1) Jugglers 2) Mathematicians 3) Other curious people ABOUT THE BOOK The scientific understanding of ‘air-juggling’ has improved dramatically over the last 2 decades. This book aims to bring the reader right up to the forefront of current knowledge (or pretty close anyway). There are 3 kinds of people who might be reading this (see cover). As far as possible, I wanted to cater for everyone in the same book. Maybe this would help jugglers to appreciate maths, mathematicians to get into juggling, or even non-juggling, non-mathematicians to develop a favourable perception of the juggling game. In order to fulfil this ambition, I have indicated which parts of the text are aimed at a specific kind of reader. Different fonts have been used to indicate the main intended audience. Everyone (with many exceptions) should be able to understand most of the writings for the curious. However, non-jugglers may not be able to envisage the patterns discussed in the jugglers text, and non-mathematicians may find some of the concepts in the technical sections hard to get their grey matter around. I must point out however, that juggling is a fairly complicated business. It can be very hard to understand what’s going on in a juggling pattern when it’s being juggled in front of you, and it’s not always easy to understand on paper. This book introduces ‘Generalised siteswap’ (GS) notation, and shows how most air-juggling patterns can be formalised within the GS framework.

  • Volume 03.01
    Volume 03.01 Stratford upon Avon local history J R Jennings Railway Archive An essay entitled Down Memory Lane “Tempus Fugit” by W H Pettifer Introduction and comment by J R Jennings In 1965 Mr Pettifer presented me with a copy of his essay and the sequel to it (which is catalogue ref 03.03). The documents were not good copies being “carbons” from originals produced on an old typewriter by the author. They have been in my collection ever since. Mr Pettifer told me that he had deposited copies of the documents with several museums but I do not recall which ones. When I reviewed my Stratford area documentation in 2003 for the purpose of placing important items into the public domain I revisited the essays and realised that with the passing of nearly fifty years since they were written and many more since the events described in them the contents are significant. It is the comment of a normal workman on his life and times and his efforts in producing it are to be commended. If only more of the old employees had deposited similar documents we would have a richer knowledge of past times. The original documents would not reproduce easily even with modern scanning and copying equipment so rather than attach a poor copy of my original carbon copy I have completely re printed the material verbatim. I have kept to the author’s original layout and all errors except basic spelling mistakes have been left exactly as they were. No attempt has been made to correct content even where I know it is wrong.
