  • RAF KENLEY AIRSHOW REPLACED by SOUTHEND AIRSHOW! “75Th ANNIVERSARY of the BATTLE of BRITAIN” TOUR Monday, 7Th – Monday, 21St September, 2015
    RAF KENLEY AIRSHOW REPLACED BY SOUTHEND AIRSHOW! “75th ANNIVERSARY OF THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN” TOUR Monday, 7th – Monday, 21st September, 2015 “Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few” was spoken by the British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, referring to the ongoing efforts of the Royal Air Force pilots who were at the time fighting the Battle of Britain (BoB), the pivotal air battle with the German Luftwaffe with Britain expecting a German invasion. Churchill first spoke his famous words upon his exit from 11 Fighter Group’s underground operations control centre at RAF Uxbridge which he visited on 16th August during the battle (which we visit on Day 3). Pictured left are Spitfire pilots of No 610 Squadron, at RAF Biggin Hill during September 1940. This 15‐day tour concentrates solely on the Battle, visiting various airfields, sites, monuments ‐ and 2 airshows ‐ commemorating what was a huge turning point not only of Great Britain’s and Europe’s history but that of the whole world. Had the battle been lost the world as we know it could have turned out very differently. Spitfire Pilots of No 610 Sqn, RAF Biggin Hill, Sep 1940 This fabulous tour will include: Solent Sky Museum (R.J. Mitchell Hall of Fame, designer of the Spitfire) RAF Tangmere ‐ Military Aviation Museum RAF Hawkinge ‐ Kent Battle of Britain Museum Capel‐le‐Ferne – National Memorial To The Few RAF Biggin Hill (optional visit to the Kent Spitfire Restoration Company) RAF Biggin Hill – St George’s RAF Chapel of Remembrance RAF Bentley

  • Collision. Wrawby Junction. 1983-12-09
    RAILWAY~NSPECTORATE DEPARTMENTOFTRANSPORT 2 MARSHAMSTREET LONDON SWIP 3EB 19th March 1985. I have the honour to report, for the information of the Secretary of State, in accordance with the Direc- tion of 21st December 1983 the result of my Inquiry into the collision between a freight train and apassenger train that occurred at about 18.18 on 9th December 1983 at Wrawby Junction, near Scunthorpe, in the Eastern Region of British Railways. 2. The 17.32 Cleethorpes to Sheffield 2-car Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) passenger train was travelling along the Down Fast lineat about 5 mile/h when it was struck about midway along the right-hand side of the leading carriage by Locomotive No. 47299 which was hauling the 15.02 Drax to Lindsey freight train compris- ing 9 empty oil tank wagons. Because a track-circuit failure prevented a set of points from operating and the protecting signals from clearing, the signalman had hand-cranked the points to the Normal position. He failed to clamp them Normal as he should have done. Both trains had been called forward under caution but the freight train driver failed to stop at the signal box. His train was diverted at low speed into the side of the passenger train through the points that had, in the meantime, reset themselves to the Reverse position. 3 The leading vehicle of the DMU was derailed and turned onto its side, the trailing vehicle was derailed but remainedupright. There were 1 I passengerson the DMU and1 regret to report that on'eof them was killed instantly, the Emergency Services were quickly at the scene and 3 others were taken to hospital 2 of whom were discharged after treatment.

  • Rails by the Sea.Pdf
    1 RAILS BY THE SEA 2 RAILS BY THE SEA In what ways was the development of the seaside miniature railway influenced by the seaside spectacle and individual endeavour from 1900 until the present day? Dr. Marcus George Rooks, BDS (U. Wales). Primary FDSRCS(Eng) MA By Research and Independent Study. University of York Department of History September 2012 3 Abstract Little academic research has been undertaken concerning Seaside Miniature Railways as they fall outside more traditional subjects such as standard gauge and narrow gauge railway history and development. This dissertation is the first academic study on the subject and draws together aspects of miniature railways, fairground and leisure culture. It examines their history from their inception within the newly developing fairground culture of the United States towards the end of the 19th. century and their subsequent establishment and development within the UK. The development of the seaside and fairground spectacular were the catalysts for the establishment of the SMR in the UK. Their development was largely due to two individuals, W. Bassett-Lowke and Henry Greenly who realized their potential and the need to ally them with a suitable site such as the seaside resort. Without their input there is no doubt that SMRs would not have developed as they did. When they withdrew from the culture subsequent development was firmly in the hands of a number of individual entrepreneurs. Although embedded in the fairground culture they were not totally reliant on it which allowed them to flourish within the seaside resort even though the traditional fairground was in decline.

The weather through the first Autumn month was kind to us and it has been good to see so many anglers out on the banks making the most of this glorious time of the year. I couldn't help but notice while out delivering the September magazines how the leaves had taken on their Autumnal colourings so early, indeed the leaf fall had already begun! Even the blackberries seemed to be in fruit very early. I picked a large bowl of them in mid August! They are in the freezer waiting for Mrs Reed to put them in an apple crumble! Mrs Reed and I enjoyed a lovely week in Cornwall and it was nice to get away for a few days.

  • Memory Lane – Auf Der Straße Der Erinnerung
    Memory Lane – Auf der Straße der Erinnerung Ein uraltes blaues Photoalbum erregte meine Aufmerksamkeit in einem walisischen Junk-Shop. Es enthält zahlreiche Photos von Dampflokomotiven, aber auch von Flugzeugen, Hubschraubern und Schiffen, sowie Bahnhöfen, Straßen und Gebäuden. Der unbekannte Photograph nahm sie ab 1951 auf. Besonderes Interesse zeigte er nicht nur an Kirmes- und Garteneisenbahnen, an den großen und kleinen Loks der British Railways, sondern auch an der schmalspurigen Talyllyn Railway in Wales. Spannend war die detektivische Suche nach weiteren Details zu den Lokomotiven und Orten.

The recent spell of glorious weather prompts thoughts about the impact of climate on history. The great threat to local communities before modern times was harvest failure. Crisis mortality rates were often the result, not just of outbreaks of deadly disease; and the two sometimes combined. Cattle droving was fundamentally affected by climate, only getting underway sometime from mid-April once grass growth removed the need to use hay as fodder. Bees have rarely had such a good start as this year to their foraging season, reminding us of the significance of honey as the major sweetener before sugar became widely used. Cane sugar was first grown by the Portuguese in Brazil during the 16th century but entered the British market from the Caribbean only from 1650. Not until well beyond 1700 was it cheap enough to rival honey. The numerous bee boles and other shelters for straw skeps (hives) in Cumbria pay tribute to the care with which bees were kept. Beekeeping was no mere pastime but an activity of considerable economic significance.
