The Romanovs' Imperial Train: Rare Interior Photos
The Romanovs' Imperial Train, exclusively built for international travel by Emperor Nicholas II, featured ten carriages including a sleeping car for the Emperor and Empress, a saloon car, a kitchen, a dining car, and separate sections for the grand dukes and other family members. The train also had a fully dedicated chapel. Used during the First World War, the train provided luxury, comfort, and security for the last Russian Emperor. Sadly, all the trains were burned during the Russian Civil War, and the surviving cars were destroyed in 1941, leaving no original imperial trains in Russia today.

    3:28…Built in 1934, it was grafted in as part of the new Highland Junior High School in 1957. It was called the “700 Building,“ where the language lab was. It was not until the 2010s when the old original Quanset hut style Highland Junior High School (now Highland Middle School) buildings were torn down with a totally new school put up. It’s a shame as it should have been made into a national historical monument instead.

    Presumably by "The Port of Manchester" he meant Salford Quays/Docks ? At least he got the year of closure ( 1982 ) right I suppose.

    • @Jomo-x6n
      @Jomo-x6n 2 месяца назад

      Couldn't see any references to "The Port of Manchester" in the video. Actually the producer of the video is right as the Manchester Ship Canal extends to Manchester. There are several docks on the Manchester side of the canal otherwise they cannot call it the 'Manchester Ship Canal'. Nowadays when people say 'Manchester' they mean 'Greater Manchester' just like London means 'Greater London'. However when the Manchester Ship Canal was built back between 1887 and 1894, Greater Manchester did not exist so there must be a Port in Manchester to qualify the Canal's name. When George Stephenson built his Liverpool to Manchester Railway back in 1830 he had to extend his railway line over the river Irwell to Manchester just so he can call it the Liverpool to Manchester Railway.

      The Port of Manchester was closed in 1982. It was created as a customs port in 1894 and was once the third busiest port in the UK. As far as I know, the Dock Office and dock gate are still there. The area is now known as Salford Quays, as it is no longer a port.
