The quarterly Caledonian Railway Association Journal from Issue 1 has been digitised as a searchable pdf and is available to purchase as a file downloads.
Each printed page has been captured in full giving a true copy of all the text, diagrams and photographs as originally presented, which record/report many aspects of Caledonian Railway history.
First published as a Newsletter, comprising two folded A3 sheets in May 1983 and followed in 1984 by Journal 1, the two publications were merged after some 20 Newsletters and five Journals in March 1990 to form "The True Line" which has been issued to all members on a quarterly basis ever since.
With the early issues out of print and a demand from new members for copies of back numbers, all issues up to and including TTL160 have now been digitised.
There are four files available - the first containing Issues 1-120 of the True Line (Volumes 1-8) plus all copies of the Caledonian Journal. Subsequent files have been produced for each volume of The True Line - Volume 9, containing issues 121-136, Volume 10, containing issues 137-148 and Volume 11, containing issues
149-160..
Each file contains a single pdf file in which all the contents are shown in the original format with photographs and where the text is fully searchable across the valuable content of the of the Caledonian Railway Association's journal and newsletter.
