		Rail movements in the I-5 corridor from Vancouver, WA to the British Columbia border include many origins and destinations, commodities, and railroads.
		As noted earlier, 58 percent of the rail tons moving via Spokane are destined for the I-5 corridor.
		An initial estimate of the average tons per truck is made by dividing the net tons in the rail car by the ratio of the cubic capacity of the rail car to the cubic capacity of the trailer.

	Steam locomotives of British Railways - Wikipedia Light!
		British Railways (BR) inherited a number of locomotives from its constituent "Big Four" companies, the vast majority of which were steam locomotives.
		British Railways was created in 1948 by the merger of the big four grouped railway companies; the Great Western Railway (GWR), the London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS), the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER) and the Southern Railway (SR).
		One notable exception to the standard gauge rule was the narrow gauge Vale of Rheidol Railway in Mid-Wales, which remained operated by British Rail until 1987 and which used three steam locomotives.

		Information on the Class 105s in Lincolnshire and East Anglia and a variety of pictures can be found on the web site of the Lincolnshire and East Yorkshire Transport Review.

		The class of locomotives that were to become known as the 47 class (or "Duff" as they have been nicknamed) are the largest class of diesel locomotives built for the British Rail fleet with 512 locomotives in all being built during the early 1960s.
		These were originally intended to be called 47/1, 47/2, and 47/3 but by the time that numbers were actually added to the numbers the classes were renamed to 47/0, 47/3, and 47/4 respectively to more closely match the numbers actually carried by the locomotives in each class.
		In April 1976 locomotive 47046 (D1628) was experimentally re-engineered to run using 56 class traction equipment and renumbered to 47601 thus forming a new 47/6 class consisting of this one locomotive.

	Class 58
		The heavy freight powerful Class 58 has not been associated with the Southern in the past - its raison d'être for the majority of years since introduction being coal workings in the Midlands and South Yorkshire.
		The announcement by EWS in September 2000 that all surviving members of the class w ould be moved south (in exchange for newer Class 66s) to be allocated to Eastleigh, Hither Green (and Acton) finally qualifies this class for inclusion on Southern E Group pages.
		The Class 58 design results from a 1977 requirement for a low cost easily maintainable heavy freight Co-Co locomotive with export potential, the introduction of the roughly contemporary Class 56 having been what could tactfully be described as grim.

	British Rail Class 58 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the late 1970s, British Rail was keen to develop a new, low-cost, easily maintainable freight locomotive that would handle the predicted rail freight growth during the 1980s as well as having the potential as an export design.
		The first locomotive, 58001, was handed over to British Rail at Doncaster Works on the 9th of December 1982 and delivery of the remainder of the locomotives swiftly followed.
		The last few Class 58 locomotives were simply switched off in September 2001 after working the last charter train, the “Bone Idol” from King’s Cross to Skegness and return.
