Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book collects firsthand accounts from engineers and managers about the implementation of metal railway tracks in Europe in the late 19th century. It adds to the growing body of evidence that metal tracks are a superior alternative to wooden ties. The book provides in-depth information on the various metal track systems that were experimented with and adopted on different lines, offering valuable insights into the factors that determine whether a metal track system is successful. By including data on maintenance costs and comparing them with those of wooden ties, the book makes a strong case for the economic as well as operational advantages of metal tracks, especially for high-traffic lines. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
