Product Information

Excerpt from Freight Terminals and Trains: Including a Revision of Yards and Terminals The favorable reception accorded "Yards and Terminals," published by the Railway Age Gazette in 1906, and the many requests for a revised edition, encouraged the writer to undertake this revision. The results have been practically a new book. The scope has been greatly enlarged and the treatment broadened, so that the new material exceeds by a considerable amount the revised portions of the former book. Hence it seemed both wise and necessary to give the book a new title. The volume is essentially a treatise on freight transportation in all its ramifications. The subject is treated from the viewpoint of the engineers who plan, build and maintain, and the officers who operate the various plants which are cogs in the great machine. The importance of the freight station, where the freight is received or delivered and cared for prior or subsequent to road movement, as well as the responsibilities and methods of the agent are recognized. The viewpoint of the yardmaster and his subordinates is developed at length; as is that of the trainmaster and train forces, on whom devolve the safe, expeditious and economical movement of trains. The mechanical department is considered, and the important relation which the engine terminal and its operation bear to train and yard service is discussed in detail. The attitude and problems of the management, responsible for favorable net returns, are constantly kept in mind. It may seem that the volume is made unnecessarily large by the many detailed descriptions of yards, terminals and equipment. Because of the expressions of many readers of the former volume on the value of such details, it was deemed unwise to curtail them. No two terminals are alike in their physical and traffic characteristics. Every illustration of successful design or description of good operating methods is consequently of assistance to the railroad man who is seeking new ideas to help solve his own problems. It has been the writer's aim to present fairly all shades of opinion on questions of design and operation and, to that end, he has quoted freely from the opinions of recognized experts. In most instances acknowledgment is made in the text where these quotations appear. The writer wishes further to express his grateful appreciation to the Railway Age Gazette, the Engineering News, the Railway and Engineering Review, and other railroad and technical periodicals, and to the many railroad officers and others for valuable information and assistance.
