 Cross Country Route (MR) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term cross country route can clearly be a generic one; it is usually used on the English network to refer to one of the routes through Birmingham, currently franchised to Virgin Trains.
The Cross Country Route (MR) is the name given to a major British rail route, running from South West England via Bristol, Birmingham,
In the 1960s the route was understood to be 'pencilled in for electrification' - this probably would have been particularly beneficial for climbing the Lickey Incline into Birmingham from Cheltenham.

Again the running over the L.M.S. line is, for a cross country journey, very fast, and includes a mile-a-minute booking, the thirty-one miles from Cheltenham to Bromsgrove (where a service stop is made to attach the "banker" for the ascent of the Lickey Incline) being allowed only thirty-one minutes start-to-stop.

 Event Pau 2004 - Concours complet - CEPP - The stages
At the end of the cross country course there is a good indication of the possible winner of the event, but the Jumping test confirms the outcome.
The cross country course comprises 27 fixed obstacles over a distance of 4.5 km (logs, water jumps, ditches and hillocks).
Some of the obstacles may have easier options but they will induce time penalties as they lengthen the course distance.  The course runs through the woods and open ground using the natural undulations of the site.  In the race to victory, confidence and close understanding between rider and horse are indispensable.

It crosses snowmobile trails in several places, and snowmobiles may be encountered on the short loop at the far end; 60 look for the blue diamond trailblazes in those areas.
It's starting elevation of 2800' means it is not one of the first routes to be skiable in the fall but it offers essentially flat terrain in a pleasant, forested setting with a modest six mile round trip to road end and back.

The first was a mock cross country flight (distance was only 35nm) to get a feel for the tasks.
The route back was from SKX to a VOR crossing (DIXAN) and down V83 to SAF.
The route took us over the southeast practice area and was pretty easy to make it to the airport from that point.

 Scandinavians to Zion
Unless they lived on Zealand itself, that meant crossing the straits from Jutland or one of the Danish islands, and the Sound from Sweden—short laps but adventurous to many who were seeing the face of their country for the first time.
It is estimated that 4000 Mormon converts (all nationalities) crossed the plains by handcart from 1856 to 1860; and between 1861 and 1868, some 2016 "teams," each consisting of a wagon and four yoke of oxen and accommodating from eight to ten persons, were sent out from Utah as "church trains" to aid the emigrants.
They crossed England the next day to Liverpool, where they were housed in a comfortable hotel, served a warm meal "immediately," and "taken good care of" until on December 31 they boarded the Forest Monarch, a "splendid sailing vessel" which had not carried passengers before; carpenters, in fact, were still installing the berths.

 Cross-Country Flying [Ch. 14 of See How It Flies]
When you are planning a cross-country trip, it is advantageous to plan a route that passes over airports along the way.
If the lines cross at a shallow angle, the precision of the fix will be poor, so when picking the second VOR try to pick one that is well off the line given by the first VOR.
This is because you want the cross radials to cross the course at a reasonably large angle (preferably 45 degrees or more); otherwise accuracy is impaired.

Jeremy also added that the new cross country trail and the downhill site would benefit from each other : "We get quite a few bikers coming to the downhill site just for a look but many are put off from trying downhill riding as the red bull trails can be punishing.
The plan is to include numerous jumps and berms on the final descent where cross country riders will learn some skills that downhill bikers take for granted.
The 18km red route is part of the £2M Seven Stanes initiative and will start and end at the internationally renown Red Bull downhill biking site, making the venue a major destination for top level races.

 Free Range Librarian: January 2005 Archives
Part of the excitement about new information services, such as blogging, is that blogs directly and indirectly work to cross that bridge, both with the type of content they can provide--reflecting, commenting, correcting, and augmenting the MSM, as well as through their own reportage—and through their collective poke in the back to traditional journalism.
My guess is most of you either route around the sillier parts of ALA by participating in divisions that meet your personal or professional needs (e.g., by joining LITA, which has terrific interest groups in every imaginable tech-related area, an excellent annual Forum, and great collegiality), or by ignoring ALA altogether.
I suspect the real difference between the "Nextgen" librarians and us old codgers is that the young'uns are much less interested in ALA's head games and can find other means of interacting without donning bustles and sleeve garters, and if I'm right, those demographics will come home to roost in the next decade.
