Download or read book Dale Jones Rail Diary written by Dale Jones and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 92-page full-color 11 x 8.5 landscape format softcover has over 170 photos,120 of them featuring the GN line, most of which have never been published before.The book is a compilation of my photographs of Great Northern and Burlington Northern operationsin Spokane's Inland Empire from the 1960s to 1980s, with occasional foraysaround the Western United States prior to the 1990s. In 1967, the Great Northern announced a new corporate makeover to "Big Sky Blue."It was the 1960s and bright colors were "in." To me "Blue" was more interestingthan NP "Black." Even today, the debate continues among railfans as to whichrailroad had the "best" paint schemes, Northern Pacific or Great Northern.In any case, I became a Great Northern fan. At first I wanted to record an image of every GN locomotive I could find for modeling, but then as time marched on toward the Burlington Northern merger,I felt the need to document everything Great Northern before it was gone. On pages 58 and 59, trace the changes on the "Then and Now" Riverview/Fisher River.First scenes, without track prior to opening of the Flathead Tunnel-Libby Dam Relocation in 1970 and then later 30-years later with trains. You'll also see images of the very last Burlington Northern train in Scotia Canyon before abandonment in April 1984. Visit the last days of the Great Northern/Burlington Northern grade above Riverside Park west of Fort Wright before abandonment circa 1972.Here's what one reviewer states, "What a great piece of work, I have givenyour book a heads up with the GOAT [an online discussion] group"

Download or read book Scotland s Railways in the 1980s 1990s written by Peter J. Green and published by Pen and Sword Transport. This book was released on 2021-01-18 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A book full of nostalgia for those who thought railways after the end of steam would be an endless stream of lookalike boxes . . . a revelation.” —Rail Advent In the 1980s and early 1990s, Scotland was an excellent destination for the railway enthusiast. The many locomotive hauled trains running through splendid scenery, together with the surviving railway infrastructure and mechanical signaling, provided many fine photographic opportunities. Peter J. Green’s first railway visit to Scotland was on board the Fair Maid railtour to Perth, behind Flying Scotsman in 1983. The following year, he again traveled to Scotland, this time on the F & W Railtours’ The Skirl o’ the Pipes 4, to Kyle of Lochalsh and Mallaig, his first visit to the Scottish Highlands. Green had previously been traveling abroad for railways, but impressed by what he saw, he decided that he would quickly return to photograph the Scottish railway scene, before it changed too much. This was the start of a series of visits, each for one or two weeks, between 1984 and June 1991, covering the whole country. This book is a photographic record of the locomotives, trains and infrastructure of the railways of Scotland and the landscapes through which the trains ran, as recorded by Green’s various cameras during the period of his visits. “Lots to enjoy, not just the Scottish locomotives themselves, but their trains and the world beyond, which in some cases has changed beyond recognition in the years since these photographs were taken. Highly recommended.” —The Railway Magazine
Download or read book British Railways in the 1970s and 80s written by Greg Morse and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-08-10 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For British Rail, the 1970s was a time of contrasts, when bad jokes about sandwiches and pork pies often belied real achievements, like increasing computerisation and the arrival of the high-speed Inter-City 125s. But while television advertisements told of an 'Age of the Train', Monday morning misery continued for many, the commuter experience steadily worsening as rolling stock aged and grew ever more uncomfortable. Even when BR launched new electrification schemes and new suburban trains in the 1980s, focus still fell on the problems that beset the Advanced Passenger Train, whose ignominious end came under full media glare. In British Railways in the 1970s and '80s, Greg Morse guides us through a world of Traveller's Fare, concrete concourses and peak-capped porters, a difficult period that began with the aftershock of Beeching but ended with BR becoming the first nationalised passenger network in the world to make a profit.
