Thomas Edmondson (30 June 1792 in Lancaster, England – 22 June 1851 in Manchester, England) was the inventor of the Edmondson railway ticket. He was a member of the Religious Society of Friends and originally worked in the Lancaster cabinet making business of Gillow. When the Manchester and Leeds Railway opened in 1839 Edmondson became the company's chief booking clerk at Manchester. His machines and their improved successors quickly became the standard for British and other railways. He died a wealthy man; members of his family carried on the business for many years afterwards.

  • Thomas Edmondson (30. června 1792, Lancaster – 22. května 1851, Manchester) byl anglický vynálezce Edmondsonovy jízdenky. Edmondson byl členem Společnosti přátel a původně pracoval v Lancasteru jako truhlář, vyrábějící nábytek v dílně v Gillow. V roce 1839, po otevření železniční trati společnosti ve stanici Milton (dnes Brampton) pracoval jako přednosta stanice a tak musel vydávat i jízdenky. Aby svou práci zjednodušil, vymyslel nový typ jízdenky z kartonu (do té doby se používaly jízdenky papírové) i způsob jak na ni pomocí dřevěné desky tisknout pořadová čísla a údaje o trase. Do té doby se na jízdenku ručně vypisovalo jméno cestujícího a platnost byla dána razítkem s datem. Thomas Edmondson na kartónové jízdenky získal patent. (cs)

  • トーマス・エドモンソン(Thomas Edmondson, 1792年5月30日 ランカスター - 1851年5月22日 マンチェスター)は、イギリスの技師。エドモンソン式乗車券の発案者である。 クエーカーのメンバーで、もともとはランカスターでワーミング&ギローの家具職人として働いていた。 (Newcastle and Carlisle Railway) のミルトン駅(現在の)で駅長として働いているときに、彼は鉄道の乗車券の新しいタイプのアイデアを考案した。厚紙の小片に旅行の詳細をあらかじめ印刷したものである(現在の手書きの紙の請求書と対照的に)。チケットは手書きで番号が付けられ、購入時に別の日付印を押して有効になる。彼は後に、この行程を足踏み式で行える装置を発案し構築した。 1839年に (Manchester and Leeds Railway) が開通した際、エドモンソンはマンチェスターで会社の主任予約係になった。 エドモンソンが財産を築いたのは彼の最後の発明、すなわちシリアルナンバーを完備したチケットをまとめて印刷する機械だった。彼はこの機械の特許を取得し、鉄道会社から1年間ごとに路線長1マイル当たり10シリングのロイヤリティーを取得することができた。 (ja)
