Abstract:
The South Wales Railway was opened between Chepstow in Monmouthshire and Neyland on the Milford Haven estuary between 1850 and 1856, and in combination with the electric telegraph and ancillary railways established a transport and communications network that exercised a profound impact on society and identity in south Wales. By the narrowing of distance through speed, this network brought many urban communities and their nearby districts closer together and was instrumental in transforming the selfimage and identity of south Wales. Conversely, while the network compressed distance, it also for

Abstract:
The social discipline of time-keeping permeated many aspects of life in Wales during the nineteenth century as 'punctuality' assumed a moral imperative regulated by clocks. From 1852 the South Wales Railway adopted a single time zone decided at Greenwich Observatory which simplified railway timetables but conflicted with local time. Achieving uniformity in 'Greenwich Time' communicated through the electric telegraph proved elusive and multiple 'times' co-existed across Wales. Chiming tower clocks broadcast time locally amidst a proliferation of personal time-pieces which reflected the obsessio

Abstract:
SynopsisNational statistics for railway fatalities in England and Wales show a reduction of train crashes and a fluctuating level of deaths, of which an increasing proportion is from suicide. A closer examination of a two-year sample from the South of England revealed a large proportion of probable suicides and a small proportion of pure accidents. The remainder appeared to have medical, mainly psychiatric, contributions to their death, of which alcohol was an important factor in single young men. Rail suicides appear to be younger, the men less often married, the women more often married, and

Abstract There is a substantial research gap relating to the quality of drinking water in regional Australia and identifying possible improvements. In particular, the quality of water available in public places (washing and drinking), such as water bubblers installed in regional parks, schools, rest areas and railway stations, is poorly investigated. This paper discusses the primary and secondary water quality of eight water distribution networks in New South Wales (NSW) regional towns. An analysis of a large number of drinking water samples (more than 11,000) identified that maintaining micro

Abstract:
This thesis considers the social, political and religious changes affecting south Wales in the late Victorian and Edwardian periods through a holistic study of the lives of the men employed by the Taft Vale Railway (TVR). Its importance derives from four novel features. At its core are the employees of an entire railway company, not just a single centre or grade, and it has been informed by a wide range of disciplines from anthropology to theology. It has provided a closely observed examination of east Glamorgan society over the period, and it is emphasised that religion and politics were inex

Abstract:
Although in one sense this is a study in regional or local history, its findings have much wider implications which are of national significance. Britain gave to the world the Industrial Revolution and, as a corollary, the railway. Evidence which throws new light on the evolution of railways is therefore of high importance to historians and archaeologists of industry. Such evidence, it is suggested, is presented in this thesis. It relates mainly to the evolution of that most essential component of any railway, its track, and to the industrial archaeology of what was the leading iron-producing

Abstract:
Abstract Rhosllannerchrugog has been described as the largest village in Wales. Situated about six hundred feet up Rhiwabon mountain, it lies five miles south-west of Wrexham, in North-East Wales. According to the 1991 Census, it has a population of some 9,169 residents, 38.1 per cent of whom are Welsh-speaking. Like Rhymney, the village was at its peak of expansion in the nineteenth century, when people from both sides of Offa’s Dyke settled there to work in the coalmines. The railway and local brickworks also played their part in the town’s prosperity.

Early childhood embodied a pleasant mix of sand and sea - and ships. Home was the curiously named Borwick Rails, facing south across the beautiful Duddon Estuary in the extreme south of Cumberland. The house, which was a prominent sea-mark for ships, was situated only a few hundred yards from a wharf or quay, connected by a railway to an ironworks nearby with six blast furnaces. Behind the house was the Victorian town of Millom, created in mid-century as the result of the discovery of a large ore body of extremely high quality.

Abstract This chapter addresses the sectors that migrant workers joined because most migration flows were organised within individual industrial sectors. Four sectors were especially important and will be the focus of this chapter. The first was iron and steel. South Wales had developed a dynamic iron and then steel industry and several continental ironmasters set up ‘forges à l’anglaise’ for which they were willing to hire Welsh puddlers or rollers, despite the high costs of such labour. The second major sector that shaped continental labour migration was machinery. British expertise in steam

Black Mozambicans consistently resisted the oppressive labour regime that used steam locomotives and the rail network to deliver them as indentured labourers to the South African mining industry. Some used the system to transport them to the best labour markets and then deserted to find other, better employment. The railways formed an integral part of a highly coercive system of industrial exploitation and, in that, differed from other historical situations where transport systems were used to further genocidal agendas. Yet, so deeply traumatic were the rail journeys to and from the mines that

Modern concrete silos and grain elevators are a persistent source of interest and fascination for architects, industrial archaeologists, painters, photographers, and artists. The legacy of the Australian examples of the early 1900s is appreciated primarily by a popular culture that allocates value to these structures on aesthetic grounds. Several aspects of construction history associated with this early modern form of civil engineering have been less explored. In the 1920s and 1930s, concrete grain elevator stations blossomed along the railway networks of the Australian Wheat Belts, marking w
