"Pioneer Pullman of the Air"
Until the mid-1920s, American commercial airplanes were built for mail, not people.
Boeing's Model 80, along with the Ford and Fokker tri-Motors, were a new breed of passenger aircraft.
The 80 first flew in August 1928 and was working along Boeing Air Transport's route two weeks later.
The 12-passenger Model 80 and the more-powerful 18-passenger 80A (re-designated 80A-1s when the tail surfaces were modified in 1930) stayed in service until 1933, when replaced by the all-metal Boeing Model 247.
The Museum's Model 80A-1, equipped with three Pratt & Whitney 525-horsepower "Hornet" engines, was retired from service with United in 1934.
In 1941, it became a cargo aircraft with a construction firm in Alaska. To carry large equipment, including a massive 11,000-pound (4,950 kg) boiler, a cargo door was cut into the plane's side. After the war, the 80 was stored and then discarded.
It was recovered from a dump in 1960 and eventually brought to Seattle for restoration. It is the only surviving example of the Boeing Model 80 series.
Stewardesses
In 1930, Miss Ellen Church, a student pilot and registered nurse, convinced Boeing management to hire female cabin attendants for their Model 80 flights.
Until then, it had been the co-pilot's duty to pass out box lunches, serve coffee, and tend to the passenger's needs.
Church reasoned that the sight of women working aboard the Boeing 80s would alleviate the passenger's fear of air travel. She and seven others, all nurses, became America's first stewardesses. Serving on a trial basis, they were very popular and became a permanent part of American commercial aviation.
The Luxury
A passenger flying in Boeing's earlier Model 40 was in for an uncomfortable trip. The 40 was designed for mail -- people were secondary, packed like sardines into the cold and noisy fuselage.
The advent of the Model 80 brought some comfort to travel.
The 80A had room for 18, a heated cabin, and leather seats. There was individual reading lights and the lavatory featured hot and cold running water.
Although the 80 had a luxurious interior, flying was tough by today's standards: the cabin wasn't pressurized, engine noise made conversation difficult, and despite heaters, the cabin was sometimes very cold.
A model railway at the York Railway Museum, England.
The National Railway Museum (NRM) is a museum in York forming part of the British Science Museum Group of National Museums and telling the story of rail transport in Britain and its impact on society. It has won many awards, including the European Museum of the Year Award in 2001. It is the home of the national collection of historically significant railway vehicles, as well as a collection of other artefacts and both written and pictorial records.
Being brought up in the GMPTE operating area, the Dinky Atlantean (Really a Fleetline!) featured heavily in my collection during my younger days. Most survive and I currently have around two dozen in various states of disrepair. An excellent casting for its day, I decided to have a go at making one into a GMT Training Bus, which was the fate for a good number of the 48 1972 delivered dual doored Fleetlines (The only dual doored production Standards)
7227 was an Atherton based trainer for several years and it is this vehicle that I have chosen to model my Dinky on. Wheels were replaced with a set of EFE Wright Scania ones that I had lying around.
