2005-08 August Dispatcher lights, Camera, Action! Movie night to be held September 10 at ORM On Saturday, September 10, the Oklahoma Railway Museum (ORM) will be holding its monthly membership meeting at 6 pm at the Museum. Because of Labor Day weekend, the monthly ORM membership meeting was moved. We have an exceptional program. Jim Terrell , rail enthusiast, will be showing four fascinating rail movies starting at 7 pm in the dining car. Before his presentation at 6 pm, we will be having a hamburger dinner at the Museum. The first movie is on the old SP786 train that runs from Cedar Park to Burnet, Texas taken in September 1992 and November 1992. The next movie is on the Milwaukee Road #461 train that runs from Emporia to Topeka, Kansas taken in 1998. The 3751 Santa Fe train from Amarillo, Texas to Topeka , Kansas taken in 1998 is the subject of the third movie. The last one, which I find particularly interesting, is on the Red & Silver Santa Fe railroad Warbonnet train that runs from Gallup, New Mexico to Amarillo, Texas taken in the summer of 1992. These movies should make for a fun evening for the members. I appreciate Jim volunteering to show his movies. As a reminder, we will still be operating excursion trains in September on the 3rd and 17th. There's always a need for volunteers for the operating days and for projects around the Museum.

  • Just One Month of Amtrak Actions
    Volume 1 Issue 5 May 2018 JUST ONE MONTH OF AMTRAK ACTIONS • March 20- Effective March 20, Amtrak cancellation fees increased dramatically. Amtrak also cut back year-round discounts, eliminated the former 10 percent discounts for AAA and AARP members, and cut the senior discount from 15 percent to 10 percent. • March 26 – Amtrak discontinued discounts for military Veterans. The "Veterans Advantage" discount on Amtrak tickets for travel and on weekend Acela service was ended after 17 years. The decision to eliminate the program was part of Amtrak's decision to end its involvement with private company membership clubs. • March 28 - Amtrak issued a notice to employees: “Generally, Amtrak will no longer operate charter services or special trains.” • March 29 - Amtrak personnel began denying moves by private cars located on route midpoints with less than 30 minutes dwell time. This limits the locations where private cars can be added or removed from trains. • April 18 – Amtrak issued formal restrictions on private cars which contains a list of Amtrak- served locations eligible for adding or removing Private Cars from designated Amtrak trains, subject to operating conditions at the time of the requested movement. The policy also limits maintenance performed by Amtrak on Private Cars to FRA-required repairs of safety appliances, • April 18 - Rates were increased 12.4% on all services to private cars despite a long standing rate addendum agreement “The rates in this Addendum will be adjusted annually based on the AAR Quarterly Index of Charge-Out Prices and Wage Rates (Table No. C), using the 4th Quarter United States, “Materials prices, wage rates and supplements combined (excl.

  • Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii
    RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo.

  • Incorporating Mep Architectural Engineering
    INCORPORATING MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING SYSTEMS INTO HISTORIC PRESERVATION PROJECTS – THREE CASE STUDIES by JASON TERRY B.S., Kansas State University, 2008 A REPORT Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Department of Architectural Engineering and Construction Science College of Engineering KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2008 Approved by: Major Professor Sutton Stephens, Ph.D., P.E., S.E. ABSTRACT Architectural engineers face many challenges in the design and implementation of mechanical, electrical, lighting, plumbing, and fire protection systems in buildings. Space and aesthetic coordination must be managed between the architects, engineers, contractors, and building owners. Further design issues are involved when renovating or preserving historic properties. Historic buildings often contain additional design limitations and character defining features that must be preserved. A building’s character defining features often represent past history, culture, and architecture. To better understand the design coordination and other issues faced in historic renovation, three case studies located in Kansas City, Missouri, are presented to investigate the application of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) system design into historic buildings. The three case studies include: the Stowers Institute for Medical Research, as a mechanical design; the Union Station, as an electrical and lighting design; and the Webster House, as a plumbing and fire protection design. The renovation projects’ architects, engineers, and contractors were personally interviewed to obtain the most accurate information and account of the design and construction process. Additional information was gathered, and a tour of each building allowed for the pictorial documentation of each site. Preserving the historic character of buildings during renovations has many advantages and disadvantages for both the owners and the designers.

Lowerre Follow this and additional works at: https://scholar.smu.edu/smulr Recommended Citation Jack Pope & William G. Lowerre, Revised Rule 227 - A Better Special Verdict System for Texas, 27 SW L.J. 577 (1973) https://scholar.smu.edu/smulr/vol27/iss4/1 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Law Journals at SMU Scholar. It has been accepted for inclusion in SMU Law Review by an authorized administrator of SMU Scholar. For more information, please visit http://digitalrepository.smu.edu. REVISED RULE 277-A BETTER SPECIAL VERDICT SYSTEM FOR TEXAS by Jack Pope* and William G. Lowerre** THE Texas Supreme Court's revision of rule 2771 which became effective September 1, 1973, marks the first major change in the manner for the submission of jury issues since 1913.2 Hopefully the burdens on jurors, prac- titioners, and the courts will be lightened by the change. The effective date for the revised rule coincided with the effective date for the adoption of comparative negligence3 in Texas, and the two reforms should simplify tri- als in a great number of cases. This Article is written with two purposes in mind: (1) to explain the probable nature of the changes in the practice which will flow from the revision, and (2) to discourage the importation of former practices, especially in the area of negligence law, into the new system. The revised rule commences: In all jury cases the court may submit said cause upon special issues without request of either party, and, upon request of either party, shall submit the cause upon special issues controlling the disposition of the case that are raised by the written pleadings and the evidence in the case, except that, for good cause subject to review or on agree- ment of the parties, the court may submit the same on a general charge.4 The quoted portion of the rule means that the special verdict will be the dominant mode of jury submission in Texas.
