The Little Rock

One of the least-known parts of the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad was its New Orleans line, a part of the Louisiana Division. No, the line never reached New Orleans, but it did reach the bauxite, timber, and agricultural products of South Arkansas and North Louisiana. With the addition of the former passenger-heavy line to Hot Springs, Arkansas, these lines became The Little Rock in 1977. These 500 miles of track were a "quasi-independent" operating subsidiary of the Rock Island, a place to test new service strategies and to see if local management could help turn the railroad around and make it profitable.During the short two years before the Rock Island began to close in late 1979, The Little Rock was successful in turning a profit and in regaining some of the lost business across the region. However, like most of the railroad, little survived after the company's receivership, and today most of the track and right-of-way have been abandoned.This book is written for those who want to know more about the various Rock Island lines south of Little Rock, Arkansas, and the more than a dozen companies involved with building and operating the railroad. It is written as if the reader has left Little Rock and is riding the line southward, helping to answer the questions of "Where are we and what once happened here?"Information on The Little Rock's history and current status, as well as a mile-by-mile route guide, are included. Enjoy this review of The Little Rock, one of the Rock Island Railroad's mighty fine lines.

The American Transportation Revolution

A history of steamboats and railroads in the United States prior to the Civil War. In the first half of the nineteenth century, transportation in the United States underwent an extraordinary transformation. Steamboats and railroads turned long-distance travel from an arduous undertaking into a regularized commodity: travel became something that people could purchase. Historians have long understood the economic and political ramifications of improved travel, but the social and cultural dimensions of early steam transit are less studied. In The American Transportation Revolution, Aaron W. Marrs explores the cultural influence of steamboats and railroads, which fascinated Americans across the country.Demonstrating the wide cultural reach of steam transit, Marrs draws from an eclectic set of sources, including children's books, comic almanacs, musical works, sermons, etiquette guides, cartoons, and employee rulebooks. This rich tapestry of cultural production helped "naturalize" steam technology for Americans before they ever encountered steam transit in person. Before ever seeing a railroad, Americans could read a novel that took place on a railroad, see an image of a train on currency, or purchase piano music imitating a train. These cultural artifacts made these new forms of transport feel familiar and natural.Marrs examines how cultural norms about travel emerged through the prescriptions of etiquette authors and the actions of travelers themselves, how enslaved people made innovative use of transportation networks to escape from slavery, and much more. Marrs convincingly demonstrates steam transportation's broad cultural impact on the United States, and how Americans, in turn, imprinted their own meaning on this new technology.

Mechanic Shop Femme's Guide to Car Ownership

A comprehensive guide to car ownership and maintenance intended for anyone--regardless of age, gender or experience. When did you last pick up a book about cars? Typically written for men, particularly automotive enthusiasts and mechanics, these books rarely appeal to the everyday car owner. Mechanic Shop Femme's Guide to Car Ownership is different. Automotive educator, journalist, and social media influencer Chaya M. Milchtein is a queer woman who has spent the last decade deeply entrenched in the automotive industry. In a country where economic injustices disproportionately impact marginalized people, particularly people of color and the LGBTQ+ community, a reliable car and an excellent relationship with a quality mechanic is vital to climb out of poverty. Chaya understands that a vehicle is an economic necessity that can provide access to career opportunities, financial security, and physical safety. She also understands that queer folks and women often find it daunting to buy a car and, subsequently, deal with the realities of getting it insured and repaired. In Mechanic Shop Femme's Guide to Car Ownership, Chaya speaks to readers of all identities and socio-economic backgrounds, arming them with the necessary knowledge to navigate the intimidating automotive industry. At its core, this book is an accessible and comprehensive guide that will put readers at ease by providing them with basic knowledge about car ownership and maintenance. From buying a car, to getting it insured, finding the perfect mechanic, and dealing with car emergencies, Chaya encourages her audience to make educated decisions regarding their vehicles. Mechanic Shop Femme's Guide to Car Ownership is a must-have--one that will last readers through a lifetime of car ownership.

Maybe our Rats are dependable, and maybe they ain't all that dependable.That's all part of the fun and excitement of having a Rat and keepin' it goin' down the road, often much to everyone else's surprise.I also hafta mention the fine California folks that made this part of the Rat Life is extra fun. From my original California ridin' partner, another transplanted Texan Oakland Steve (RIP) to California native Frisco Dave, who is still with us and still ridin' to Kent & Lori, where ever they are today. And a special thanks goes to the shop crew at Frisco Choppers, Dudley Perkins and Corvette Corner. All those wonderful shops are just special memories today, for those fun shops are sadly long gone today.And last, I gotta give a special Rat Nod to the great state of California. As a snot-nosed kid born in 1955 and raised in Dallas, Texas, I had long wished to live in wild and crazy California, enjoying that west coast bike and car scene, and I finally got to do it in the 1980s. California was a fun place to live and ride back then, before the helmet law.You wanna ride your Rat on Highway 1 and watch the sunset over the Pacific Ocean? It's there waitin' for you. You wanna ride your Rat through the Redwood Giants? They've been their hundreds of years waitin' for you to come to visit them. Whether you like gigantic tree-lined mountains, flat hot cactus-filled deserts, crashin' rivers or big lakes, rolling farmland or the wine country, California had it all. I consider myself very lucky to have spent 9 years living in that great west coast state on the Pacific Ocean. I hope you enjoy this Rat Trip back to Rat Time.

Cleveland & Chagrin Falls Interurban vs Cleveland & Eastern Railway

'Kaleidoscope' edition, Vol. 6 is an in-depth and historic look through northeast Ohio's Cleveland & Chagrin Falls (C. & C. F.) and Cleveland & Eastern (C. & E.) railway interurban systems. The book contains an array of significant information not covered in previous editions. Comparisons between the two lines will be examined along with a merit of data. The author has previously published two books on the C. & E., therefore, the building history, operations and abandonment of the C. & C. F. route will be primarily focused upon. However, several important areas and Stops along the C. & E. line will be investigated. A comprehensive look at the Cleveland & Chagrin Falls line from Cleveland to Garrettsville will be presented. The author will take the reader on a Stop by Stop tour, creating an informative and panoramic view as to what was and remains today. This includes recent photos of remote locations along the right-of-way never before seen. An historic and comprehensive analysis of unique Stops will be examined. These include the Cleveland & Chagrin Falls Carbarns, Smith's Crossing, South Newbury Station, Punderson Lake, Hiram House Camp, Mooreland Hills Valley, Steele's Crossing, the Cleveland & Eastern lost church bell, along with construction materials from northeast Ohio's stone quarries which was used by the electric and steam railways to build and operate their lines. Each chapter contains an abundance of histories not previously published, offering the reader their own perspective as to why something may have occurred. For example, the Wales Hotel at Punderson Lake Stop 44 was removed two decades before the line was abandoned. The author provides a perspective from both sides, including a thorough history of Punderson Lake's development. Its later owners Mr. Cleveland and Long created the Lakefield Zoo which contained exotic animals such as Elk and Bison. Maps and blueprints denote the locations mentioned, providing an accurate placement and time frame. A large compilation of exclusive photographs are placed throughout each chapter in addition to a photo chapter. The story of Everett & Moore's interurban lines will place the reader back to the early 20th century, when life in northeast Ohio was simpler.

Inclusive Transportation

Transportation planners, engineers, and policymakers in the US face the monumental task of righting the wrongs of their predecessors while charting the course for the next generation. This task requires empathy while pushing against forces in the industry that are resistant to change. How do you change a system that was never designed to be equitable? How do you change a system that continues to divide communities and cede to the automobile? In Inclusive Transportation: A Manifesto for Repairing Divided Communities, transportation expert Veronica O. Davis shines a light on the inequitable and often destructive practice of transportation planning and engineering. She calls for new thinking and more diverse leadership to create transportation networks that connect people to jobs, education, opportunities, and to each other. Inclusive Transportation is a vision for change and a new era of transportation planning. Davis explains why centering people in transportation decisions requires a great shift in how transportation planners and engineers are trained, how they communicate, the kind of data they collect, and how they work as professional teams. She examines what "equity" means for a transportation project, which is central to changing how we approach and solve problems to create something safer, better, and more useful for all people. Davis aims to disrupt the status quo of the transportation industry. She urges transportation professionals to reflect on past injustices and elevate current practice to do the hard work that results in more than an idea and a catchphrase. Inclusive Transportation is a call to action and a practical approach to reconnecting and shaping communities based on principles of justice and equity.
