Book Description
Excerpt from Railway Shop Up to Date: A Reference Book of Up to Date American Railway Shop Practice This book goes forth as a record of what is found to exist as the best in railroad shop practice, design, construction and equipment. The editor has striven earnestly and long to compile all the available data valuable to the railroad official seeking information, whether it be for the purpose of building a new shop to meet modern and future conditions, or increasing the efficiency of an existing plant. It was not originally intended to make this book so broad and comprehensive; but there was found to be such a vast quantity of related data and information on the subject, that it was deemed advisable to extend its scope to its present proportions. All material has been condensed as much as possible without sacrificing necessary details or impairing the lucidity of any descriptions, so that each kind of shop or particular kind of practice followed, may be clearly understood and comprehended. The value of such a compilation as this depends largely upon the proper arrangement of facts in their natural and logical sequence so that the effects and results of the evolutions continually in progress, in the up to date railway shop, are readily arrived at by the reader. We have based our statements upon and drawn our conclusions from conditions as we have found them and have not theorized upon ideal conditions. We want this work to stand for exactly what its name implies. There are so many good shops, each apparently the best under the peculiar governing conditions and each new shop to be built hereafter will be subject to its own governing conditions, not possible to predict here, that it would be manifestly the sheerest folly to lay down a rigid policy or standard to be followed. We give what are found to be facts and governing conditions, but we know that there are new questions yet to be raised and unknown quantities in shop problems to be determined before any given problem can be solved. It is necessary to go from the known to the unknown in this as in other lines of progress and we have attempted to supply information to help as far as we may. There is no doubt but that there will be found here one or more illustrations which will approximately fit the conditions to be met in building a new plant or modernizing an old one. While it is unlikely that an attempt would be made to plan one shop as an identical counterpart of another, each shop illustrated or described contains some features worthy of being emulated. Our aim has been attained if we have shown clearly the various types of modem railway shops. We wish to express our appreciation of the kindly assistance rendered by the railroad officials with whom we have come in contact during the course of this work. It has been a pleasure indeed to note the willingness to assist and the interest evidenced in our undertaking.
