	Bessarabia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the latter part of the 14th century, the southern part of the region was for several decades part of Wallachia.
		At the end of the Crimean War, in 1856, by the Treaty of Paris, two districts of southern Bessarabia were returned to Moldova, Russia lost access to the Danube river.
		Bessarabia's northern and southern districts (largely inhabited by Romanians and some Ukrainians and Germans) were exchanged with parts of Transnistria (the districts on the left or eastern bank of the Dniestr, largely inhabited today by Ukrainians and Russians).

	Locomotives of the Southern Railway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Southern Railway took a key role in expanding the 660 V DC third rail electrified network begun by the London and South Western Railway.
		Withdrawal of ex-SR locomotives happened mainly towards the end of steam on the Southern Region (in 1967), the pre-Grouping designs having gone before then as electrification spread across the region.
		Bulleid was also responsible for the mechanical part of the three electric locomotives (CC1-CC3, later British Railways Class 70) built at Ashford Works in 1941 (CC1) and 1948 (CC2-CC3).

		The agreement allows for the main line operation of the steam locomotives on the national Railtrack network and on other preserved railways when not operating on the Swanage Railway, as well as their repair and overhaul at Swanage.
		Southern Locomotives Ltd remains a volunteer-managed organisation with in excess of 800 shareholders across the UK and around the world.
		Despite the passage of 15 years and the successful restoration of three main line steam locomotives, it is virtually unique in that most of the original team remains within the organisation.

	Maunsell locomotive types
		That history is not confined to the railway of origin, the SECR and its successors, by virtue of the British Government's choice of the type fot construction by the Woolwich Arsenal after the First World War.
		Most locomotives had been modified with the domed type, but a few of the original design were required for working through a tunnel of restricted dimensions on the Canterbury and Whitstable line.

		This accident to a K class locomotive was caused by poor track, weak spring design and oscillation due to water surging in the tanks.
		The outstanding feature of the Southern 'Pacifics' was the enclosure of the mechanism associated with the inside cylinder and all the valve gear in what was intended to be an oil-tight casing.
		Appendix 2 describes the influential diesel-electric locomotives and Section 6 describes the rebuilt Pacifics which were aimed to be as near British Railway standards as possible and this was achieved by Jarvis at Brighton.

		This was primarily due to the beautiful yellow ochre livery carried by the locomotives in the William Stroudley and Robert Billinton periods.
		Several locomotives have been preserved and some are still running today on heritage railways.

	Railway Age: New and rebuilt locomotives help close a power gap - Southern Pacific
		In recent years, Southern Pacific's worst problem was the condition of its locomotive fleet.
		As SP looks to the future on the locomotive side, it appears that about 4,400 hp may maximize starting tractive effort with a.c., while 6,000 hp for high speed service is where the economics start to kick in, at current pricing levels.
		By the end of next year, Southern Pacific will have done heavy repair/rebuild on about 500 locomotives, with most of this work performed at the Denver Locomotive Shop (formerly called the Burnham Shop), which was completely renovated and upgraded a couple of years ago.

		It represents the final version of the goods 0-6-0 development on the Southern Railway (and for that matter, in the world) which can be traced through the examples preserved on the Bluebell Railway of the SER "O1", through the SECR "C" and SR "Q" classes.

		The grimy condition of these locomotives is very much in contrast with that of the gleaming machines which continue to operate in preservation.
		Although none of the above examples survived the cutter's torch there are members of each of these classes still in regular use, either on the main line or on private railways.
		For the record, these images have been digitally copied from standard size prints and the original negatives (since lost) were taken using a primitive fixed focus camera.

		Some "roster" or "portrait" type photos are included but the bulk of the book comprises superb action photography with the locomotives and trains in a variety of settings.
		Southern Railway hasn't been as well covered by books as some lines, but this book seeks to fill that gap in many ways, in the era of dieselization.

		The volunteer run Bluebell Line was the UK's first preserved standard gauge passenger railway, re-opening part of the Lewes to East Grinstead line of the old London Brighton and South Coast Railway in 1960.
		Since then it has developed into one of the largest tourist attractions in Sussex, yet it still remains true to its objectives of the preservation for posterity of a country branch line, its steam locomotives, coaches and goods stock, signalling systems, stations and operating practices.
