It is with great pleasure the Council report that the Institute continues its career of usefulness, and that its affairs are in a prosperous condition. The first paper in the Transactions of the past year, by Dr. P. Phillips Bedson, on the "Testing of Safety Lamps," founded upon and explanatory of the experiments made by Professors Kreischer and Winkler, at the request of the Saxon Royal Commission in Freiberg, is particularly interesting, as it contains much valuable information on the action of small quantities of gas on the flame, produced by the combustion of various classes of oil. This research occurs opportunely when the use of electric lamps is being discussed as a substitute for the ordinary safety lamp, which not only affords light, but can be relied on as an indicator of the presence of gas, whether explosive or mephytic. Mr. Swan's interesting description of his portable electric lamp clearly showed the possibility of making a lamp—not unduly heavy, which would give out a light in excess of that usually obtained— at a reasonable price, and at a cost for maintenance below that usually incurred in the ordinary oil lamps. Mr. Kendall's comprehensive paper on the Iron Ores of the English Secondary Rocks forms a valuable work of reference on this subject. The Gold Mines of Transylvania form the subject of a valuable contribution from Mr. E. H. Liveing, a gentleman who has, on more than one occasion, added to the interest of the Transactions. Mr. Binns, an old student of geology in the College of Science, who is now Government Inspector of Mines in New Zealand, has given a valuable description of the coal industry of that colony, together with an account of its harbours and railways, and the geological formation of the country. Among other contributions may be mentioned the description of a new form of levelling staff by Mr. Linsley; a paper by Messrs. Liddell and Merivale, giving the details of a case in which power was by means of steam successfully transmitted a long distance in the workings of a colliery; a translation by Mr. M. Walton Brown of the Prussian laws for the regulation of fiery mines; and a valuable statistical table, coupled with remarks by Mr. Bird, which go far to prove that the loss of life by accidents in mines forms but a small percentage of the ordinary death rate of any district. (viii) The Council would draw attention to the fact that principally by having adopted a system of exchanges with Foreign and English learned societies, in about fifteen years a library of upwards of 8,000 volumes has been collected, at an expense of about £580. A catalogue of these works has been formed, in which an attempt has been made to indicate clearly the contents of the volumes, and draw attention to the large mass of original information contained in the MSS. in the Bell, Hall, Watson, and other collections, which form a remarkable feature of the Library. During the year, 1,016 books have been issued, as against 713 in the previous year, and it is hoped that in future the number of works consulted will materially increase, owing to the catalogue which has been prepared. On July 14th, at the kind invitation of Sir Lowthian Bell, an interesting excursion was made to the ironstone mines at Lumpsey and Skelton, to enable the members to examine the hydraulic drilling machines at the former mine, and those worked by compressed air at the latter. Another excursion was made to Marsden Rock, to entertain a number of Members of the Geologists' Association, on August the 3rd. In October last a discussion arose as to how the Institute could repay the hospitality many of its members had received at Douai, Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow, Sheffield, Leeds, and other places. After much deliberation, it was decided to hold a Mining Exhibition in 1887, to which our friends might be invited. A committee was formed to report on and carry out the scheme. Singleton House was proposed as the site, and details were prepared; but so soon as the scheme became known in the City, it was taken up by the Mayor and many of the Members of the City Council, and, at a public meeting in Newcastle, was received with such favour that it was determined to expand the project, and make it a Mining, Engineering, and Industrial Exhibition (International and Colonial), worthy of the celebration of the Jubilee year, 1887. The various Committees were enlarged to carry out this extended scheme, and your President, Mr. John Daglish, was chosen Chairman of the Executive Council, as a compliment to the Institute which had initiated the movement. In conclusion, the Council think that the members will be satisfied there has been no relaxation in the efforts made during the last year to extend the usefulness and maintain the prestige of the Institute. (vix) Finance Report. The Income for the year 1885-86 has amounted to £1,714 18s. 9d., and the expenditure to £1,624 8s. 7d., leaving a surplus of income over expenditure of £90 10s. 2d. The total amount of subscriptions and arrears received has been £1,391 2s. The arrears of unpaid subscriptions are £541 16s., being £2 2s. less than last year. signed WM. COCHRANE, JOHN DAGLISH, G.

    file IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE The Quarterly Journal of THE INDUSTRIAL LOCOMOTIVE SOCIETY COMBINED INDEX of Volumes 1 to 7 1976 – 1996 IL No.1 to No.79 PROVISIONAL EDITION www.industrial-loco.org.uk IL COMBO v2 for PDF.doc updated 13-12-2006 INTRODUCTION and ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This “Combo Index” has been assembled by combining the contents of the separate indexes originally created, for each individual volume, over a period of almost 30 years by a number of different people each using different approaches and methods. The first three volume indexes were produced on typewriters, though subsequent issues were produced by computers, and happily digital files had been preserved for these apart from one section of one index. It has therefore been necessary to create digital versions of 3 original indexes using “Optical Character Recognition” (OCR), which has not proved easy due to the relatively poor print, and extremely small text (font) size, of some of the indexes in particular. Thus the OCR results have required extensive proof-reading. Very fortunately, a team of volunteers to assist in the project was recruited from the membership of the Society, and grateful thanks are undoubtedly due to the major players in this exercise – Paul Burkhalter, John Hill, John Hutchings, Frank Jux, John Maddox and Robin Simmonds – with a special thankyou to Russell Wear, current Editor of "IL" and Chairman of the Society, who has both helped and given encouragement to the project in a myraid of different ways. None of this would have been possible but for the efforts of those who compiled the original individual indexes – Frank Jux, Ian Lloyd, (the late) James Lowe, John Scotford, and John Wood – and to the volume index print preparers such as Roger Hateley, who set a new level of presentation which is standing the test of time.

  • Private Owner Wagons Index
    PRIVATE OWNER WAGONS & TANKERS INDEX [MAINLY PRE – 1948] COMPILED BY JOE GREAVES This index alphabetically lists references in books to private owner railway wagons and tankers by company name. Each company is listed by an abbreviation of the book’s author and its page number. Coal Merchants who ran wagons are also included. Most of the references include either a photograph or drawing of the wagon. It is not intended to be a comprehensive list of every private owner wagon built, merely of those that have appeared in books since 1969. Where there is only a description of the wagon or notes about the owner, but no photo or drawing, the reference has * next to it. Some of these [IP1/147* & JA/184* particularly] are as little as just a name with no location or any other details. Locations of the companies are included unless it is obvious from the name on the wagon. If there is no location listed, particularly with the Welsh wagons, the name is the location (please check with an atlas). In Bill Hudson’s first two books (BH1 & BH2), his index lists wagons by plate (ie photo) number rather than page. In this index, they are by page number. Wagons shown in the prefaces are listed by Roman numerals, eg BH2/vi. For his third & fourth volumes (BH3 & BH4), there are no page numbers so the references are to plates not pages. Richard Tourret’s books are listed as RT, then RT2. There is no ‘RT1’. Entries are usually by surname or place, for example ‘City of Nottingham’ is under ‘N’ not ‘C’ (but North, South, East or West are under N, S, E or W.) If there is likely to be any uncertainty, the name may be listed twice, eg, Griffith Thomas is under ‘G’ and ‘T’.
