 Railroad Engineering
|
| By : William W. Hay |
A revision of the classic text on railroad engineering, considered the
bible'' of the field for three decades. Presents railroad engineering principles quantitatively but without excessive resort to mathematics, and applies these principles to day-by-day design, construction, operation, and maintenance. Relates practice to principles in an orderly, sequential pattern (subgrade, ballast, ties, rails). Applicable to both conventional railroads and rapid transit systems.

Track Cyclopedia 1985
|
| By : H. C. Archdeacon |
Designed for the reader to obtain a comprehensive background of accepted practices of track. The book covers design, construction, maintenance and inspection of railroad track in North America. The information has been arranged to facilitate the reader's search for specific material. The 37 chapters are organized into cohesive, inter-related sections. Cross-references in text are made from other chapters where appropriate. Compiled and edited in cooperation with the Association of American Railroads and the American Railway Engineers Association Advisory Committee.
