	River Tyne, England - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It enters the county of Tyne and Wear between Clara Vale (on the South bank in Gateshead) and Tyne Riverside Country Park (on the North bank in Newcastle upon Tyne) and continues to divide Newcastle and Gateshead for 13 miles, during which it is spanned by 10 bridges.
		The Tyne was a major route for the export of coal from the 13th century until the decline of the coalfields of North East England in the second half of the 20th century.
		The lower reaches of the Tyne were, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, one of the world's most important centres of shipbuilding, and there are still major shipyards at Wallsend on the north of the river and Hebburn on the south.

	The First Railroad in America (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The railroads, which were so inevitable, had their origin in crudities that formed themselves at Newcastle, on the river Tyne, England, for here wagon-ways existed as early as the middle of the sixteenth century, to facilitate handling coal from the pits to the river bank.
		It was not that the Erie Canal took trade away from New England, but it was the idea that the advent of successful canal communication spelled doom to the Hub; for inland navigation demanded rivers, and in rivers of any importance Boston was indeed poor.
		In this pamphlet a young Philadelphian refers to New England as a place "where long continuance of frost affords uninterrupted sleighing, which is almost equal to railroad communication." It is curious that so important an affair as the opening of the first railroad in America excited so little comment on the part of the public.

	River and Rowing Museum: The Sliding Seat
		As early as 1857 there are references to partial sliding by professional oarsmen on the River Tyne in England, which was also the place where Harry Clasper and Matthew Taylor succeeded in designing boats with the keel inboard, the first true shells.
		Professional scullers attempted to increase the length of the stroke by moving a short distance to and fro on a flat seat made broader than usual for the purpose, sometimes aided by greasing their breeches.
		Eighty years later, Ted Poynter and Jack Baker of Bedford, England, designed a double sculler in which the outriggers and foot-stretchers moved while the seat was fixed.
