As London Underground celebrates its 150th anniversary,Croylek Limited pays tribute to the world's oldest underground network and looks at how Croylek products has helped in improving the safety of underground trains.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
As millions of passengers make their daily commute on the London Underground, they will no doubt notice that today?s commute is slightly different from any other day. This is because the London Underground is celebrating its 150th birthday, making it the oldest underground in the world.
The first stretch of the world-famous network opened on the 9th January 1863, with the first passenger journeys taking place the following day between Paddington and Farringdon on the Metropolitan Railway.
As time passed, the technology and equipment required to manufacture, maintain high standards and develop a 21st century underground network became more advanced. For many years, Croylek Limited has assisted the London Underground in achieving their development and safety aims by supplying various products for Rolling Stock, Track Side Applications and Maintenance. The most notable product is perhaps VSR 10, a Silicone Impregnated Glass Fibre Braided Sleeving, which is fully compliant with LUL Standard 1-085-A1 (Fire Safety Performance of Materials).
VSR10 is the only specified insulation sleeving for trains operating on the underground network. It is specified for its excellent fire performance. VSR 10 possesses a high Oxygen Index of 64.5%, which makes it extremely difficult to ignite. This property, along with the products low smoke/fume and zero halogen properties offer exceptional performance and safety should a fire ever break out on the network that extends to 249 miles (402km) of which 45% are tunnels.
Individuals, including the Mayor of London, and companies, have paid tributes to the London Underground. There will be a series of events to mark the anniversary, starting with the recreation of the first passenger journey using a Metropolitan Railway steam locomotive and coaches on the 13th of January.
Once again, Congratulations on 150 years from all at Croylek Limited!

Luxury skin-care is a $1.2 billion market in the U.S., and it?s grown about 20 percent in each of the last two years. Cosmetics companies have traditionally ruled this domain, but now veterans of pharmaceutical firms are using their knowledge to grab a piece. Bloomberg Business reports.
?It seems like there?s a never-ending appetite for beauty products,? says Les Funtleyder, research director at private equity firm Poliwogg. ?For drug development, it?s 7 to 10 years from clinic to market ? and a lot of money, up to $1 billion. In beauty products, there?s less regulatory risk, no clinical-development risk, and a very much shorter time to market.?
A few years ago Kleanthis Xanthopoulos, the chief executive officer of Regulus Therapeutics ? a biopharmaceutical company developing cancer and atherosclerosis drugs ? created a separate company, Sent?, to launch a line of skin-care products.
?I was thinking, ?How can we take the rigor of high-end science and apply that not to drugs, but what we call life-enhancing consumer products that aren?t regulated by the [U.S. Food and Drug Administration]???? he explains. The scientist sees a big market catering to middle-aged women (and, increasingly, men) who want to combat sagging skin and undereye circles.
Sent? executives licensed a compound that had been sold at higher concentrations for wound and burn care. The new product is selling at $75 for 15ml, and according to the company, addresses age-related loss of skin elasticity and tone.
Living Proof, a line of hair products, is another example of a beauty brand with a pharmaceutical history. It was founded by Polaris Venture Partners, the venture capital firm behind Ironwood Pharmaceuticals, which makes a recently approved drug for irritable bowel syndrome. A main ingredient includes a light, water-resistant polymer, and the product?s formulation came about with the help of biotech and cancer researchers.

WASHINGTON (AP) ? Congressional leaders on Sunday showed no signs of emerging from their corners to resolve the next step in the financial crisis, with Democrats still talking about higher taxes on the wealthy and the Senate's top Republican suggesting that a crippling default on U.S. loans was possible unless there were significant cuts in government spending.
"It's a shame we have to use whatever leverage we have in Congress to get the president to deal with the biggest problem confronting our future, and that's our excessive spending," said Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.
Last week's deal to avert the combination of end-of-year tax increases and spending cuts known as the "fiscal cliff" held income tax rates steady for 99 percent of Americans but left some other major pieces of business unresolved.
By late February or early March, the Treasury Department will run out of options to cover the nation's debts and could begin defaulting on government loans unless Congress raises the legal borrowing limit, or debt ceiling. Economists warn that a default could trigger a global recession.
Also looming are deep automatic spending cuts expected to take effect at the beginning of March that could further erase fragile gains in the U.S. economy. Then on March 27, the temporary measure that funds government activities expires, and congressional approval will be needed to keep the government running. It's one more chance to fight over spending
Lawmakers said debt talks will consume Congress in the coming weeks, likely delaying any consideration of an expected White House proposal on gun restrictions in the wake of the Connecticut school shooting.
Republicans say they are willing to raise the debt ceiling but insist any increase must be paired with significant savings from Medicare, Medicaid and other government benefit programs. President Barack Obama has said he's willing to consider spending cuts separately but won't bargain over the government's borrowing authority.
"One thing I will not compromise over is whether or not Congress should pay the tab for a bill they've already racked up," Obama said in his weekly radio and Internet address.
Democrats said further tax increases for the wealthiest Americans were still possible as Congress looks to close the gap between revenues and expenditures. Democrats point out that Obama has already agreed to significant spending cuts, and that the latest deal only gets the nation to about half of the revenue it needs to resolve the red ink.
"Trust me, there are plenty of things within that tax code ? these loopholes where people can park their money in some island offshore and not pay taxes. These are things that need to be closed. We can do that and use the money to reduce the deficit," said Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Senate Democrat.
House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi of California said she, too, wants to put "everything on the table from the standpoint of closing loopholes."
But McConnell bluntly declared that the "tax issue is over" after last week's agreement.
"We don't have this problem because we tax too little; we have it because we spend too much," McConnell said.
Making the rounds on the Sunday talk shows, McConnell was asked repeatedly whether Republicans were prepared to see the nation default on its spending obligations. McConnell said that wouldn't be necessary, so long as Obama agrees to the spending cuts.
But at one point, when asked by NBC's David Gregory whether the GOP strategy will be to hold the debt ceiling "ransom" in exchange for spending cuts, McConnell said it was a "shame we have to use whatever leverage we have" to get the president's attention.
"None of us like using situations like the sequester (automatic across-the-board spending cuts) or the debt ceiling or the operation of government to try to engage the president to deal with this," McConnell said.
Sen. Lindsay Graham, R-S.C., didn't dismiss the idea of allowing a partial shutdown of government until an agreement can be reached. Texas Sen. John Cornyn and other Republicans have floated the idea of a shutdown as a way of winning deeper spending cuts.
"I believe we need to raise the debt ceiling, but if we don't raise it without a plan to get out of debt, all of us should be fired," Graham said.
Maryland Rep. Chris Van Hollen, the top Democrat on the House Budget Committee, said the Republican strategy amounted to: "Give us what we want ... or we're going to tank the United States economy."
Pelosi said she believes the president has enough authority under the 14th Amendment to raise the debt ceiling without Congress' blessing. But the White House has said previously that it does not believe that the amendment ? which says the "validity" of public debt shouldn't be questioned ? gives the president that power.
McConnell spoke on NBC's "Meet the Press," ABC "This Week" and CBS "Face the Nation." Pelosi was on CBS. Durbin and Graham appeared on CNN's "State of the Union" and Van Hollen was interviewed on "Fox News Sunday."
