Railway engineering: the nuts and bolts of hidden beauty | Scholars can already study railway archives in repositories all over the country, but Network Rail has just put part of its beautiful archive of Victorian and Edwardian infrastructure diagrams on the web<http://www.networkrail.co.uk/virtualarchive/>. This amounts to an invitation to anyone, anywhere, to contemplate such images out of sheer curiosity and love of beauty. They give us plans of the high-level bridge at Newcastle upon Tyne<http://www.networkrail.co.uk/VirtualArchive/high-level-bridge/>, with its columns trailing down the screen like tall sepia waterfalls, and Bristol's neo-gothic Temple Meads station, in ethereal ink outline<http://www.networkrail.co.uk/VirtualArchive/bristol-temple-meads/>. http://bit.ly/AqTAwW Source: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/mar/01/railway-engineering-nuts-bolts-beauty?newsfeed=true See if people are clicking on this link: http://bit.ly/AqTAwW+ Try the bitly.com sidebar to see who is talking about a page on the web: http://bitly.com/pages/sidebar -- Peter Kurilecz CRM CA [log in to unmask] Richmond, Va http://twitter.com/RAINbyte http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/RAINbyte/ http://paper.li/RAINbyte/rainbyte http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/archives/ http://pinterest.com/pakurilecz/records-management/ Information not relevant for my reply has been deleted to reduce the electronic footprint and to save the sanity of digest subscribers List archives at http://lists.ufl.edu/archives/recmgmt-l.html Contact [log in to unmask] for assistance To unsubscribe from this list, click the below link.
