The Beauty of Railroad Bridges: In North America-Then and Now
By : Richard J. Cook
This delightful volume is a dynamic pictorial salute to the designers and builders of these beautiful, utilitarian, and often monumental railroad engineering structures. The Beauty of Railroad Bridges fully describes the beam or girder bridge; the framed truss; the arch; the suspension bridge; plus a combination of all of these classes. Come celebrate the beauty of railroad bridges and their ability to combine symmetry with a necessary practicability: the movement of restless trains.
