Morning everyone! For your #MondayMotivation, here's a rather beautiful letterhead I found in the archives at work recently. Despite the date, I reckon it must have been printed pre-war...?
I'm pleased that thr Met are calling this out, but this headline isn't just inaccurate: it's a lie. The Mail obviously knew that their headline wasn't true, yet they printed it anyway. Let's call a spade a spade.

Wrong. The Train Operating Companies listed here do not own the railways, nor the stations, nor the trains. They are just contractors who operate train services on behalf of the government. I'm not necessarily opposed to @UKLabour's plans but they must be reported accurately.

A really insightful thread. I firmly believe that privatisation did some good things for the railways (albeit after a very shaky start!), but I can see the case that the highly-fragmented franchise model has now, perhaps, had its day.

With the PhD under my belt, I'm officially on the job market and available for paid work! My expertise is in early modern family life, illness, healthcare, and gentry and letter-writing cultures. I am experienced in archival research, palaeography and transcription, public (1/2)
It's #PreGroupingWednesday! Continuing the Wembley Exhibition theme, here's a reminder that the Gresley A1s were, in fact, a PG design...here's a view of class pioneer No. 1470 in her original Great Northern Rly livery. Sister engine 4472 Flying Scotsman was displayed at Wembley.
The British Empire Exhibition at Wembley was opened 100 years ago today. A pivotal moment in the growth of the suburbs, the exhibition attracted over 27 millions visitors to the fields of Middlesex. Read more in the exhibition here modernism-in-metroland.co.uk/blog/common-gr…
The British Empire Exhibition opened at Wembley #OTD 100 years ago (1924). Flying Scotsman was famously displayed there, but it also featured some fascinating temporary buildings for the Southern Railway. Were they designed by J. R. Scott's team? More research needed, I think...
A bit late in the day, but to mark what would have been Queen Elizabeth II's 98th birthday, here's a close-up of the maquette for her statue outside York Minster. The level of detail is just extraordinary; alas, the finished version is so high up that most of it can't be seen!
sunak claims that "people are not three times sicker than they were a decade ago". but why not? why wouldn't many more people be more ill or disabled following a decade of worsening living conditions, lower wages, and austerity?

Wearing white shoes to a railway centre...a courageous decision, as the politicians say! 🤣

Incredible how good design immediately settles into the landscape. What’s left of HS2 really is going to be a fantastic piece of tragically underused infrastructure unless Phase 2 is built out.

A narrow gauge gem for this week's #PreGroupingWednesday. Pet was built by the London & North Western Railway in 1865 for the 18" gauge internal tramway at Crewe works. She was, in effect, the Victorian version of a forklift truck! She worked until 1929.
My thoughts are with everyone affected by the Børsen fire. Anyone who's ever worked in a historic building will know that an event like this is a nightmare scenario. However, my experience of working for @nationaltrust at Uppark also gives me hope that restoration is possible.
The former MP William Bankes, a noted explorer and Egyptologist, died #OnThisDay 1855. In 1841 he had fled England to avoid prosecution for homosexual offences. Our blog explores his life and political career: thehistoryofparliament.wordpress.com/2019/02/26/fro…

Happy Monday everyone! For your #MondayMotivation, here's the seventeenth-century Great Parlour at Oakwell Hall, West Yorkshire.
Oceanic House was once the ticketing office for the shipping company, famed for the sinking of the Titanic, which occurred #OnThisDay in 1912. This photograph was taken on 24 June 1911, just 1 year before the disaster. It was decorated to celebrate King George V's coronation.

A Stroudley Terrier, but in unfamiliar territory; this is ex-LBSCR A1X no.5 ‘Portishead’, formerly no.43 ‘Gypsy Hill’. Sold by the SR to the Western, Cleveland, & Portishead Railway in 1925 and absorbed into the GWR in 1940, the loco was withdrawn by BR in 1954. 📸: Unknown
Shot by Jim M. Jarvis on shed at Rugby in May 1953, Royal Scot 46163 Civil Service Rifleman, still in Fowler condition, awaits the journey back north to Crewe. Effectively renewed that October with a 2A boiler, 46163 would be withdrawn from 16D Annesley Shed on 29th August 1964.
I know it's old hat to challenge the upstairs/downstairs paradigm, but the model really crumbles when you widen the lens to include estate workers. It's all just so much more dynamic and exciting than the TV shows would have you think.
It was my friend Mike Jacques' birthday yesterday, this is the incredible cake. Can you guess his interests? 😁
Shame to be missing out on this sort of #repair #recycling and #circulareconomy thinking. I'm seeing some great #policy ideas emerge in the #EU that encourage both manufacturers and consumers to repair and reuse more. theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
@railnigel Their brand was impeccable….
We objected and so did @hbap1924 @GeorgianGroup @archaeologyuk @SAVEBrit We are relieved to see this planning application was turned down. Cantilevering over or around a listed building must not become a way that heritage protection can be set aside. bit.ly/4bhbxmL
Hi all , a nice bright #Steamfix comes from June 2005 and the loco is 3440 City of Truro on a summers evening. Have the best Sunday you can all.
In 1934 with aims of a tractive effort 50% higher than the K2, a 2-8-0 on the lines of the O2 with 5ft 2in drivers & a tapered boiler arose. Too long for turntables & too heavy for bridges, a 2-6-0 with K3 cylinders, a K2 boiler, & a B17 firebox arose by July 1936 - being the K4.
Watching N play football under 12s. Several layers on including a thick scarf, and still cold 🥶
A Saturday spent playing with traction engines and fairground organs. The 2024 events calendar has officially begun ❤️ Bring on the summer!
When introduced, the C12s were adequate for the Kings Cross suburban runs, though proved limited in applicability. After a failure to solve this with the R1, too long & heavy for trackwork, by 1907 Ivatt resulted to a 2-6-2T which faced with length restrictions yielded to the N1.
A trip to the National Garden Railway Show today, as usual, a good event and I’ve spent more money than I should! 😀
The statutory consultee responses to the Clifton Hall Tunnel/Station Road bridge infill proposals suggest that the planning permission process is working effectively. That's why @NationalHways misuse of emergency permitted development rights - avoiding such scrutiny - had to end.
LNWR: Guard's Bandoliers look the biz! Everyone else: We agree! Super smart! Midland: Do we look like we're made of money? Nope. Great Northern: LOL No. Dangerous. Hard pass.
If you are getting off at Clapton on the London Overground, look out for a couple of these signs on the down platform. The "British Railways" indicates that they are from before 1965, so they're still doing good service after 59+ years.
📡Very excited to participate in this, and to hear such a wide range of interesting papers! I'll be speaking about the Italian fin-de-siècle art magazine La Triennale, international symbolism and the debate on the social value of beauty in Italy at the turn of the 20th century
@We_OwnIt @adamineden Tell the truth. They don't 'own' the railway, they have management contracts to run certain services which are granted by the people who do own the railways. The Government.
Such codswallop!
🚨🎊🎉Labour has announced they’ll be fully taking our railway into public ownership within 5 years. This is brilliant news for passengers and rail workers. It’s bad news for train company shareholders around the world. Here’s who owns our railway: weownit.org.uk/who-owns-our/r…
It's like I'm in a game of twister. One foot in the museum world with my amazing new job. One foot in the freelancing world. One arm in academia writing my book. My other arm holding a mug of coffee. My headspace? Dangling somewhere between all four!😅
