Slow Travel: An analysis of the relationship between the environment, railways and tourism in Brazil by C. Fraga, E. S. Botelho

“…Inspired by the theory of symbolic sites of belonging developed by Zaoual, this exploratory and descriptive study contributes in two ways to the production of knowledge on the interplay of tourism, railways and the environment in the context of slow travel: (1) conceptually, to the design of what can be called slow rail travel (SRT), involving relations with protected areas (in Brazil called conservation units); and (2) analytically, by identifying the potential of SRT provided by trains pulled by steam locomotives in Brazil. The results indicate that the south and southeast regions, notably the states of Minas Gerais and São Paulo (southeast) are propitious for the development of this type of rail travel in association with protected areas.…”

The end of the line: competitive exclusion and the extinction of historical entities by Luke C. Strotz, Bruce S. Lieberman

“…We take a novel approach to this issue by quantifying variation in trait values that capture almost the entirety of function for steam locomotives (SL), a known example of competitive exclusion from material culture, with the goal of identifying patterns suitable for assessing clade replacement in the fossil record. …”

Magnetic Fly Ash as a Chronological Marker in Post-Settlement Alluvial and Lacustrine Sediment: Examples from North Carolina and Illinois by David A. Grimley, Ashley S. Lynn, Colby W. Brown, Neal E. Blair

“…Fly ash consists of mainly silt-size spherules that form during high-temperature coal combustion, such as in steam locomotives and coal-burning power plants. In the eastern USA, fly ash was distributed across the landscape atmospherically beginning in the late 19th century, peaking in the mid-20th century, and decreasing sharply with implementation of late 20th century particulate pollution controls. …”

“Ride and Tie”: Looking at Horses in the English Novel through Posthuman Eyes by Sinan AKILLI

“…Almost in the middle of this century-long period, which may be called the ‘Early Anthropocene Age,’ stood James Watt’s invention of a working steam locomotive (1784). Watt’s invention started a process in which horses that were the nonhuman animals with the greatest agential power in the signification, production-consumption, and exchange systems of the human society in Britain began to be replaced with “horse power” and “iron horses” by the end of the Victorian period. …”
