Four years later, on May 27, 1898, he was promoted to fireman, and worked on all types of freight trains until November 27, 1911, when he was transferred to Heaton and became a motorman on the Tyneside electric services. After a spell of just over eight years as a motorman, he returned to Gateshead as a driver, and apart from a further short period as a motorman, he was employed at the Gateshead depot, first as a pilot driver, and then as a freight train driver.
The electric train motorman denied emphatically that he had misread this train's signals for his own and asserted that the inner home signal on the up main through line for his train was displaying a green aspect, with the indicator showing platform 14.
But to no avail - the suburban (Sunday) service ground to a halt, with only 20 of the 268 motormen turning up for work on Boxing Day [1949]. Kempton Park races lost 10,000 visitors, with the cancellation of 12 extra race day trains.

examples: This chapter on high-grade pelvic prolapse by Phillip Toozs Hobson and Amallia Brair concisely reviews prevalence, risk factors, conservative and surgical management options, surgical complications and prevention. High-grade prolapse is a particularly challenging clinical scenario because it reflects a severe loss of native support and has been associated with a higher rate of recurrence over time. Pelvic prolapse is an intimate condition in which education and counselling is critical to patient’s understanding, expectations and treatment satisfaction.
Surgical treatment of patients affected by high-grade high-dysplastic spondylolisthesis still represents a challenge for spine surgeons.
The additional detection rate of HSIL [high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions] using indiscriminating ECC [abnormal endocervical curettage] was 5%.

1914, H. G. Wells, “The Common Sense of Warfare” in An Englishman Looks at the World (U.S. title: Social Forces in England and America), New York: Harper & Brothers, § 2, pp. 163-164,
The progress of invention makes both the big ship and the army crowd more and more vulnerable and less effective. A new phase of warfare opens beyond the vista of our current programmes. Smaller, more numerous and various and mobile weapons and craft and contrivances, manned by daring and highly skilled men, must ultimately take the place of those massivenesses.
A Norman capital can be heavy because the Norman column is thick, and the whole thing expresses an elephantine massiveness and repose.
There was an oil lamp in all the four huts on Okonkwo's compound, and each hut seen from the others looked like a soft eye of yellow half-light set in the solid massiveness of night.
