‎JAPAN RAILROADS Album of Rolling Stocks Used By Japanese Government Railways‎

‎Osaka: Liason Office Osaka Railway Division Japanese Government Railways 1947. First Edition . Hardcover. Fine. Quarto 66pp. illustrated with 89 mounted photographs. A fresh clean example sharp and bright with the only visible flaw being some waviness throughout due to the mounting glue. The prints themselves are universally in excellent condition; overall fine. An absolutely extraordinary visual collection of the rolling stock locomotives and all sorts of freight cars used by the Japanese Government Railways in the immediate post-war period. The prints are each about 4" x 6" and the developer cropped the exposiure to jst the immediate area around the trains leaving large white borders which give the trains themselves a real "pop."<br/> <br/> Int he mid-19th century Japan was an extremely isolated society both from the rest of the world and also to some extent internally with different regions of the main island quite distinct culturally. The railway system which began construction in 1872 facilitated movement throughout Japan and helped to create a more interconnected society. The railways were nationalized in 1906 and they remained under direct imperial control until 1949 when the Japanese National Railways corporation took over management of the system.<br/> <br/> This extremely well-illustrated album complete with details and specifications for all pictured models is undoubtedly the most extensive record of Japanese trains for the period of World War II and at the dawn of the post-war period. In the decades since Japan has become an undisputed world leader in train technology particularly in terms of human rather than freight transportation.<br/> <br/> OCLC records a single holding at the Army Logistics University library.

‎Night Trick by. O. Winston Link. Photographs of the Norfolk & Western Railway, 1955-60. Edited with an Introduction by Rupert Martin. (Ausstellung).‎

‎Published by The Photographer's Gallery; London / National Museum of Photography; Bradford (u.a.), 1983. 24 Seiten; illustr. (s/w Fotografien); graph. Darst. (Kt.); qu.-21 cm; geheftet.‎

‎Gutes Exemplar; der illustr. Einband etwas berieben. - This exhibition, first shown at The Photographers' Gallery, London, 17 June - 27 August 1983 ... (S. 1) // The Norfolk and Western Railway was built in the 1850's to run from Norfolk, Virginia on the Atlantic coast across the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Alleghenies as far as Colombus, Ohio, and from Hagerstown in the North to Winston-Salem in the South. Photography is bound up with the early pioneering days of the railroad in America, and it is fitting that the last days of steam locomotion should have been so extensively recorded by Winston Link just over a hundred years later. Winston Link was born in 1914 and trained as a civil engineer before becoming a photographer. After his highly specialised research work during the 2nd World War he developed the skills of multiple flashlight photography which were to prove invaluable when in 1955 he discovered the Norfolk & Western Railway. The result is an unparalleled collection of 2032 negatives made over a period of five years from 1955 to 1960, which documents various aspects of the life of a railroad. What distinguishes Link's work from conventional railway photography is its human context and the dramatic effect produced by photographing at night Many of the photographs depict the trains in motion at night through the framework of some rural scene or event; the drive-in cinema at laeger, the gas station at Vesuvius, the swimming pool at Welch, West Virginia, or the silo near Shawsville in the Roanoke Valley provide a lively social perspective. The timeless character of the rural community coincides with the momentary, fleeting passage of the steam trains to produce an often startling incongruity. The consummate technical skill of Winston Link is matched by an imaginative insight which enables him to previsualise a photograph. But the element of risk, spontaneity and surprise is always there. In one of his notebooks he writes of the laeger Drive-in photograph; Since I could only see the headlight of the locomotive in total darkness, I did not know until the flash was fired that I had captured this prize, Class A engine with beautiful smoke and all of it in range! In addition to this virtuosity there is a subtlety of reference in these photographs some of which do not even show the trains. The photograph of the interior of the store at Green Cove, Virginia which doubles as a waiting room is a masterpiece of discretion and visual description reminiscent of the work of Norman Rockwell. The portrait of old folk on the porch of a house at Lithia, Virginia is preserved from sentimentality by the sinister presence of the train in the background. ... (Vorwort) // Ogle Winston Link, bekannt als O. Winston Link, (* 16. Dezember 1914; ? 30. Januar 2001) war ein amerikanischer Fotograf. Bekannt wurde er durch seine Schwarz-Weiß-Fotos und Tonbandaufnahmen der letzten planmäßigen Dampflokomotiveinsätze in den Vereinigten Staaten in den 1950er Jahren. Er half als professioneller Fotograf die Eisenbahnfotografie als Hobby zu etablieren. Auch seine Nachtfotografien waren wegweisend. Bekannt sind unter anderem die Fotos Hotshot Eastbound (ein Zug passiert ein Autokino) und "Hawksbill Creek Swimming Hole" (ein Zug überquert eine Brücke, unter der Kinder baden). Während eines Auftrages zur Industriefotografie in Staunton (Virginia) 1955 rückte eine naheliegende Strecke der Norfolk and Western Railway (N&W) in sein Blickfeld und seine Liebe zur Eisenbahn wurde neu belebt. Die N&W war die letzte Class-1-Bahngesellschaft, die von Dampflokomotiven auf Diesellokomotiven wechselte. Am 21. Januar 1955 machte er in Waynesboro (Virginia) seine erste Nachtaufnahme von der Strecke. Am 29. Mai 1955 gab die Bahngesellschaft bekannt, dass sie nun auch komplett auf Diesellokomotiven umsteigen wolle. Die Fotos von Link wurden somit ungewollt zu einer Dokumentation des Endes der Dampftraktion in den Vereinigten Staaten. Rund 20-mal besuchte er die Strecken der N&W in Virginia und bis 1960 machte er insgesamt 2400 Aufnahmen. Die Fotos machte Link auf eigene Kosten, er wurde jedoch vom Präsidenten der N&W, Robert Hall Smith, sowie von anderen Beschäftigten unterstützt. Neben den Lokomotiven fotografierte er die Eisenbahner der N&W bei der täglichen Arbeit sowie das Leben in den Gemeinden entlang der Bahnstrecken. Die Fotos waren exakt ausgerichtet und wurden meist nachts aufgenommen. Link begründete dies damit, dass er dann die Beleuchtung optimal wählen könne, während die Sonne meist nicht am richtigen Platz sei. ? (wiki)‎

Er gilt als einer der bedeutendsten deutschen Wirtschaftstheoretiker des 19. Jahrhunderts. Als Ökonom war List ein Vorkämpfer für den Deutschen Zollverein und das Eisenbahnwesen. Als Initiator des Staatslexikons, das neben ihm als Mitherausgeber mit den badischen Professoren Karl von Rotteck und Carl Theodor Welcker verbunden wird, spielte List eine wichtige Rolle für die Entwicklung des Liberalismus in Deutschland. Er war als erster deutscher Vertreter der modernen Volkswirtschaftslehre ein Vorläufer der Historischen Schule der Nationalökonomie. Mit seinen wirtschaftspolitischen Überlegungen (u. a. Erziehungszoll, Nationales Innovationssystem) hatte er umfassende Fragen aufgeworfen, mit denen sich die Entwicklungsökonomie seit Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts beschäftigt. Seine Entwicklungstheorie wurde u. a. in vielen ostasiatischen Ländern studiert und wirtschaftspolitisch genutzt. (Quelle Wikipedia)‎
