@NTiHoR2020
The account for the New Tracks in the History of Railways Twitter Conference (#NTiHoR), showcasing new research. Tune in on the 17 and 18 September.


This week & next it's the virtual @T2M_Association conference! Held on Thurs 22 & Fri 23 October, and on Thurs 29 & Fri 30 October, see the programme here: t2mconference-2020.org/index.php/time… Plug: we'll be announcing the 2020 John Scholes Prize winner in the opening session on Fri 23 Oct!

The EF55 class locos, aka "Moomin", has mythical status in Japan. Built by Hitachi in 1936 for Tokaido expresses, they were the poster child of wartime high-tech Japan, and could be seen in a wide array of propaganda. Basis for proposed locos for Tokyo-Peking-Singapore services.
