Modern Railways Magazine Britain's Railways in the 1980s Speciale Editie

English
353 Beoordelingen   •  English   •   Aviation & Transport (Rail)
Only €9,99
Ever since the early 1960s Britain’s railways had been in a period of decline. Despite ending the use of steam traction, passenger numbers and freight traffic continued to fall, the track and facilities had been severely rationalised, and the motive power fleet reduced to a small number of standard types.

The first seeds of a reversal of fortunes came in 1976 with the introduction of the High Speed Train while the Advanced Passenger Train was under development. For freight, the way forward was seen as via both faster and heavier trains for which a new class of more powerful diesel locomotives was required. But much greater change was on the way, perhaps not in the direction expected at the beginning of 1980.

Modern Railways

Xx Beoordeeld op 20 januari 2021

Modern Railways

I find the current UK rail news and comment sections most interesting, particularly ‘Informed Sources’ and ‘Pan Up’, both of which make the magazine a must have each month. I really appreciate how both Roger and Ian bring their knowledge and experience into their articles, but always with the ability to point out where policies and decisions are quite often, seriously flawed, making their articles very informative and enjoyable to read, all laced with intelligent humour as required. I often wish our politicians could display similar clarity of thought and intelligence! Beoordeeld op 24 september 2020

Modern Railways

My only complaint is a lack of diversity in the editorial staff. Please do not misunderstand, this is no criticism of the individual writers but it does lead to a narrower collective viewpoint than might otherwise be the case Beoordeeld op 28 juli 2020
