Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Safety of British Railways; Or Railway Accidents: How Caused and How Prevented The Author was led, a few months ago, by an article in a technical journal, to look into the causes of the railway accidents of thirty years or so ago and to compare them with those of the present day. The question of safety on British railways is one of great importance as well as of considerable interest, and this was in the Author's mind when he commenced investigations. We were then passing through anxious times in that direction as the annual report of the Board of Trade showed that the year 1906 was the worst since 1874 as to casualties to passengers in train accidents. The perusal of these pages will show that the accidents of a former generation were mostly due to a weakness of the Machine and not so much to errors of the Man. The Machine is now perfected, and these pages will, without doubt, force the reader to the conclusion that present day accidents are due to failures of the Man.

Download or read book The Reshaping of British Railways written by British Railway Board and published by Collins. This book was released on 2013-01-01 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Reshaping of British Railways is a piece of railway history every dedicated enthusiast will want in their collection. Bradshaw's Guide has given birth to a wave of nostalgia for our Victorian and Edwardian railway systems. The Reshaping of British Railways, another facsimile which will fascinate train buffs, is the document that decimated these systems forever. With the British Rail company's failure, by the early 1960s, to stem the network's huge annual losses, the government turned to Dr Richard Beeching. He was to save money by recommending the cutting of redundant routes and services. His two reports, The Reshaping of British Railways (1963) and The Development of the Major Railway Trunk Routes (1965), were published by the British Railways Board in 1965, and offer a fascinating snapshot of our nation's railways. In the first part of this historic facsimile, Dr Beeching identifies the 2,363 stations and 5,000 miles (8,000 km) of railway line for closure - over 50% of all stations and 30% of route miles. The second part recommends a small number of major remaining routes for significant investment. Well documented nationwide protests resulted in the saving of some stations and lines, but the majority were closed as planned and Beeching's name is to this day associated with the mass closure of railways and the loss of many local services in the period that followed. Now, for the first time, this iconic piece of railway history is available in its entirety, complete with the original tables and maps of routes deemed fit for closure.
