Refimprove date June 2007 Zimuto Siding pronounced correctly as ZeeMooToe Siding, is named in the ChiKaranga language spoken locally after Chief Zimuto in whose area it is located. Zi is a word prefix denoting large size, and Muto is a noun meaning soup. So literally Zimuto means a large amount of soup. The colonial settlers named the siding after the local chief Zimuto but due to their poor understanding of the pronunciation wrote the name as they would pronounce it and not as it is actually pronounced. The name Zimutu was put down as the official name and appears on some old maps and on rail road documents. It is meaningless and led to confusion as locals spelt is as Zimuto, and the settlers spelt as Zimutu. After inderpendence in 1980, most local names were revised and spelt correctly. Because many documents were generated during the colonial years, researchers must always assume that Zimutu is the same place as Zimuto. Brief Zimuto Siding is a small Railroad stop over place in the Masvingo Province of Zimbabwe . It is located north of Masvingo on the Masvingo Gweru railwayline. It was developed as a siding initially before being commercialised.

nofootnotes date March 2011 refimprove date March 2011 Boulton s Siding was a British locomotive hire business owned by Isaac Watt Boulton and situated alongside the Oldham branch of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway at Ashton under Lyne . It operated from 1864 to 1898. Overview In the 1860s, established railway companies were replacing their small 2 2 0 and 0 4 0 steam locomotive s with larger, more modern machines. Mr I. W. Boulton took advantage of this by buying up some of the old locomotives, modifying them in his workshop, and hiring them out to contractors for use on civil engineering projects, including the building of new railways. The usual modifications were to fit smaller driving wheel s to increase tractive effort and to convert tender locomotive s to tank locomotive s. By the 1880s, the hire business was declining so Mr Boulton started building new locomotives. He used his own patent design of boiler which had a single large flue with cross water tubes. This was, essentially, a horizontal predecessor of the vertical water tube boilers later used in Sentinel Waggon Works Sentinel Steam Waggons . Although Boulton s boilers steamed well, they were difficult to repair so they never became popular. The business declined during the 1890s and closed in 1898. Mr Boulton died in 1899.
