Download or read book The Metropolitan-Vickers Type 2 Co-Bo Diesel-Electric Locomotives written by Anthony P. Sayer and published by Pen and Sword Transport. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 553 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thorough history of the Metropolitan-Vickers locomotive, also known as “Class 28,” featuring 160 color and black & white photos. This book provides an in-depth history of the Metropolitan-Vickers diesel-electric Type 2 locomotives, more frequently known collectively as the “Co-Bo’s” due to their unusual wheel arrangement. Twenty locomotives were constructed during the late-1950s for use on the London Midland Region of British Railways. The fleet was fraught with difficulties from the start, most notably due to problems with their Crossley engines, this necessitating the need for extensive rehabilitation work during the early-1960s. Matters barely improved and the option to completely re-engine the locomotives with English Electric units was debated at length, but a downturn in traffic levels ultimately resulted in their demise by the end of 1968 prior to any further major rebuilding work being carried out. Significant quantities of new archive and personal sighting information, supported by over 180 photographs and diagrams, have been brought together to allow dramatic new insights into this enigmatic class of locomotives, including the whole debate surrounding potential re-engining, their works histories, the extended periods in storage, together with in-depth reviews of the various detail differences and liveries.
Book Synopsis King's Cross Second Man by : Norman Hill
Download or read book King's Cross Second Man written by Norman Hill and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2018-11-30 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Late in 1964 the author made a career change from the Midland Region railway clerical grades, to the Eastern Region Motive Power Department at King's Cross, initially as a locomotive cleaner. This was the realization of an ambition held for some ten years and by the end of December 1964, he became eligible for second man duties. On 28 December 1964, he was second man on a return trip to Peterborough, and determined to keep a record of the run; locomotive employed, the driver he accompanied, the rostered diagram and the actual circumstances of the diagram. Norman duly recorded this shift, along with all shifts worked during his employment as second man.Norman realized that such a record would be of great interest to both railway enthusiasts and employees, past and present. Especially those who worked on the southern section of the East Coast Main Line or those with a special interest in the railways of the 1960s a formative period of railway modernization when 150 years of steam-powered railway locomotion gave way to more modern means of motive power. This book will use Norman's records of 1964-68 as a basis for an account in which he will show the slow and difficult transition of Britains railway from its traditional steam-powered world into the modern world of diesel and electric traction.Norman's work as second man took him to places and railway installations in North London that no longer exist, and which have taken their place in railway history, and sometimes even within the broader fabric of the history of London, and of England itself. Through the medium of Norman's records of 1960's railway working, he looks back and rediscovers these forgotten places and so contrasts nineteenth-century railways and industrial history with operating practices on todays modern British railways.

This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining railway memoir covering the Diesel modernisation.Aspects of railway and locomotive operations are explained clearly with detailed examples.Will appeal to readers with a specialised interest in Railway technology, engineering and history. I Would Have Done the Job for Nothing is a fly on the wall account detailing behind the scenes events of running a railway, including the odd occasion when the fly got swatted. It covers life in a busy locomotive works at Crewe during the age of steam and how the authors’ career developed and led to his moving from the Wirral to the East Midlands to work in the Derby Locomotive Drawing Office. He later transferred to the Headquarters at Derby just as the Diesel rail car modernisation began. Working for this new team they identified and resolved many issues of the new diesel locomotives. Many of the facts within this book may never have been told first hand, and although some were almost hilarious, others could have been far more serious and ultimately dangerous to the public if they have not been dealt with. The book aims to detail the attraction of engineering and the highs and lows of the job itself. It will appeal to readers with a specialised interest in locomotives, railway engineering and history.
