Streetcar timetable for the 40 Mt. Washington, 44 Knoxville, 48 Arlington, and 49 Beltzhoover. The 40 was abandoned a few months later on September 3, 1966. The 48 was gone sometime in 1968. The 44 and 49 hung in till November 13, 1971.

The Lincoln Gettysburg address train and the Lincoln funeral Train both traversed this route. The PRR in 1936 ran 18 passenger trains over this track in 1936. At one point the PRR K5 Pacific was also tested on this line. At present service is disrupted by numerous everchanging economic events and we are stymied in out efforts to view the K5, The Statesman and the Liberty Limited symbol Passenger Trains because Mr. Peabody and Sherman's Way Back Machine is being repaired.

First West of England WsM based 35147 SN65 OMR is seen approaching WsM interchange working a 7 towards Locking Parklands, with the new routing now no longer serving the high street and seafront.

U2 - No Line On The Horizon Live in Dublin

www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oKwnkYFsiE&feature=related

  

There are two reasons why a person faces the sea.

One, to enjoy a slice of shine in the sea like children bubbling over in the beach.

The other, to brush the dust of memory like an old man who misses old days, staring at the shine

quietly.

Those lead to only one meaning though they do not seem to overlap. It’s a rebirth.

I face myself to change tomorrow, a vague day into something certain.

That is the meaning of a rebirth.

I had a very sweet girlfriend when I was 18.

After she left, I knew the meaning of gentleness for the first time and also a true pain of loss. After

she left, how many times did I depend too much on her, doubt her, envy her and keep on telling lies

until I realized it is love?

I wonder whether a nobody like me could have given something to her who was struggling in the

daily life in those days. Giving something is arrogant conceit. It is nothing but self-satisfaction.

I had been thinking about such a thing.

However, I guess what she saw in me was because I had nothing. That‘s why she tried to see

something in me. Perhaps she found a slight possibility in me, a guy filled with ambiguous, unstable

tomorrow. But I wasted days depending too much on her gentleness.

Now I finally can convey how I felt in those days when we met.

This set of photos shows the finally days of the United Automobile Services operations in the most rural parts of the Yorkshire Dales in Wensleydale and Coverdale. Not long after, the new broom of Arriva vacated the area having served it for over 70 years, and then a few years later, closed Richmond depot outright so that their presence is reduced to one trunk route. I think these photos were taken c.Aug 1998 judging by the vegetation; have only just rediscovered these after 21 years!

 

These timetable cases were once commonplace in major villages and towns. Most disappeared in the 1970s seemingly but some did survive. The ones in Hawes and Leyburn, where this one resided, were late survivors. This was still there in 1998 but soon went - who knows who acquired this and how?

On 27th January 2016 I uploaded a shot of the Norfolk County Council timetable case at Gresham. At that time it was attached to a pole situated adjacent to the telephone box on Holt Road. Since then it possibly fell off and some kind soul has moved the case a few yards east to the bus shelter, also on Holt Road, where, rather than face the elements, it now sits propped up and relaxing on the seat inside said shelter. Of course, never having been updated at all since 5th September 2010, presumably because the NCC money ran out, it is even more out of date than in January 2016. (There were lots of things already wrong back then and these are detailed in my previous upload - see below.)

 

From week commencing 3rd September 2017, Sanders services 16/17 & 19 were revised as follows. Service 16 now runs on Tuesday only to/from Holt via Baconsthorpe and continues to depart from the School. The previous incarnation of Thursday only service 17 was withdrawn and replaced on this day by a new service 17 which runs between Cromer - Sheringham - West Runton. Service 19 continues to run to Holt via Sheringham on Monday and Wednesday and on Friday a new service 20 Cromer - Gresham - Holt/Edgefield was introduced using the bus that had previously worked the Friday service 16 journeys. Most journeys are also scheduled to depart slightly earlier than the out of date times shown, but the conscientious traveller would be at the stop in good time and of course the locals all know.

 

Along with all of their other services, operation of the third Wednesday in the month Aldborough Community Bus NS2 journeys to/from Norwich passed to North Norfolk Community Transport from 5th September 2016. Subsequently the NS2 service ceased when the twelve NNCT routes were withdrawn from 3rd September 2018 and only partly replaced by Feline Travel.

 

On the plus side, Sanders schoolday only services 79 Gresham - Cromer Academy and 401 Edgefield - Sheringham High School also serve the village.

Note: Throwing myself into playing with colour ...the learning curve may be slow but it sure is fun. :) That aside...it was such a lovely weather as I was out and about today, that no matter where I went as I was running my errands, people were chatty and happy. It just was not possible to avoid getting pulled into conversations with shop owners often on benches outside their stores. Timetable was out the window ...ah who needs 'em anyway? I love living in my vibrant down town neighborhood! :D

I literally threw a bunch of timetables from my collection onto the scanner so I could make an illustration for an article I wrote for Railfan & Railroad's web site: www.railfan.com/extraboard/rf_extra_may2013.php

Central Train Station, Yerevan, Armenia.

MacBrayne's was a shipping, bus and road haulage company which served the west coast of Scotland and its islands.

 

It was jointly owned in 1950 by British Railways (the UK state rail company) and private shipping company Coast Lines (taken over by P&O in 1970).

 

In 1969, MacBrayne's was transferred to the state owned Scottish Transport Group and in 1973, its shipping operations were merged with the Caledonian Steam Packet Company (wholly owned by BR to serve the Firth of Clyde and also transferred to the STG in 1969) to form Caledonian MacBrayne which still serves the islands of the west coast of Scotland to this day under state ownership. (The bus and road haulage operations of MacBrayne's were privatised under different names in the 80s.)

 

This is the cover of MacBrayne's 1950 summer brochure for their passenger shipping services. It depicts images of Staffa (top left), Iona (top right) and the Spanish Armada galleon sunk in Tobermory. The red funnel is that of the steamer King George V which served all these locations on a pleasure cruise in summer from Oban 1936-74.

I love collecting timetables. I started since I was five.

Just got back from a stay in Whitby.

From June 11, 1972 Amtrak timetable. Who knew Amtrak would be so AWESOME!?

Erie Railroad Rochester Branch timetable Form 15, Rochester, Avon, Mt. Morris, and Dansville, effective June 12, 1927.

That's right, the total weight of all of Metro's bus schedules bunched together is a hefty 960 grams (2.1 lb). I'm missing schedules for the 8 and 49. Thank goodness for mybus.org. All they need is easy access to schedules and route maps for mobile devices with tiny screens, and I can say goodbye to paper schedules. I'll still have the urge to pick up a schedule to study while I ride the bus to pass the time.

City Centre, Edinburgh

(March 2010)

Before it was a cycle path, of course…

 

This latest scan from my 1964 Western Region timetable shows the passenger service available back then between Bristol and Bath Green Park via Mangotsfield.

 

A reasonable level of service of 8 trains per day (Sundays excepted – the Sunday service was withdrawn some years earlier but only amounted to two trains per day, and always referred to by my father as the “Parson’s trains”).

 

Most trains stopped at all stations. Bitton wasn’t served by the first train in the morning in either direction, and the 1903 from Green Park, the last train of the day (actually starting at 1540 from Bournemouth West) ran non-stop to Mangotsfield. It then languished there for 10 minutes whilst a van was detached from the train and later attached to the northbound Newcastle Mail.

 

Those trains that are showing as only running as far as Mangotsfield were actually heading further north on the Midland main line towards Gloucester. One of them in each direction, the 0820 from Bristol and 1710 return from Mangotsfield, only ran as far as Yate and were primarily for the workers at the factories belonging to Parnalls and Newmans. The trains were known as the “Parnalls trains” for this reason. Parnalls factory still stands in 2016 in Station Road, Yate, and currently owned by Indesit, but Newmans factory was demolished and the site is currently occupied by a Morrison’s supermarket and a B&Q DIY store. All the other “short” trains in the timetable went on to Gloucester.

 

One oddity that got into the timetable during the last few years of operation was that there were some northbound express trains that stopped at Mangotsfield to make a connection with trains from Bath Green Park, but no express trains stopped in the southbound direction. In this 1964 timetable, the 0740 departure from Bristol was on its way to Bradford, the 1040 departure was heading for Newcastle, and the 1930 departure was the overnight Newcastle Mail. As will be seen, these trains did not call at Fishponds or Staple Hill, and neither did the 1545 departure from Bristol; this, however, was only a local service to Gloucester, and missed out those two stations simply because the 1535 departure for Bath Green Park (final destination Bournemouth) was only 10 minutes in front of it. If anybody from Fishponds or Staple Hill wanted to go north they could change at Mangotsfield.

 

Saturday 2nd January 1965 saw the last stopping trains run between Bristol and Gloucester, all stations being formally closed between Yate and Haresfield on the following Monday. Thereafter there were only the Bath Green Park trains and this timetable, or at least one very similar to it, ran until Saturday 1st January 1966.

 

The line to Bath was supposed to close on Monday 3rd January 1966 but got a nine-week reprieve. The service provided for those nine weeks, however, was meagre to say the least, and the “Emergency timetable” as it was known is reproduced here:

Baltimore & Ohio Pittsburgh Local Timetable, Form TT 5, effective April 30, 1961. The format is similar to the timetables issued for B&O's Baltimore-Washington commuter trains. In this schedule, one train made all stops to Connellsville, most were RDCs that terminated at either McKeesport or Versailles.
