Book Description
Excerpt from Railway Construction The construction and maintenance of a railway calls for the application of so many branches of engineering that several volumes would be required to do ample justice to a subject so comprehensive and ever-extending. To avoid attempting so wide a range, the object of the following pages has been to describe briefly some of the recognized leading features which regulate railway construction, and to assist the explanation with sketches of works selected from actual practice. Where the number of existing good examples is legion, it is somewhat difficult to make a choice for illustration, and the course adopted has been to select such samples of structures as appear best to elucidate in a simple manner the different types of work under consideration. In the drawings and diagrams many important minor details are necessarily omitted, partly to avoid complexity, but principally to leave more prominent the leading features of the particular piece of work referred to in the description. Some of the sketches of the large span bridges and large span roofs are only shown in outline; but, as their principal dimensions are given, a general idea can be obtained of their actual proportions. No allusion is made to the requisite strengths of the various structures described, nor to the necessary dimensions of the materials used in their construction, as this would necessitate the introduction of a vast amount of mathematical formulae which does not come under the province of the object in view, and which the engineer has already at command from his training and works of reference.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Development of the American Rail and Track: As Illustrated by the Collection in the U. S. National Museum In considering the improvement in methods of transportation, I am led to think that there is a tendency to overestimate the benefits aris ing from the invention and improvement of the locomotive, and to overlook what has been done by those who devoted time and thought to the development of the various systems of permanent way. The improvement made in track construction in England during the first quarter of the century made the introduction of the locomotive there possible.

Excerpt from An Exposition of the Danger and Deficiencies of the Present Mode of Railway Construction: With Suggestion for Its Improvement Take any piece of mechanism, simple or com plicated, and disarrange its parts, so that they do not act in unison with each other, what will be the consequence -the machine will cease to perform its functions, or the ill-according parts will destroy each other.
