Excerpt from Electrical Equipments for Movable Bridges Nearly all railroad bridges are built without interrup tion of traffic, and even put into commission with only a few hours' delay. Each individual bridge embodies many new and un tried conditions, which must be met successfully with few chances for preliminary experiments. Such a schedule requires a type of engineering, which is seldom required in other branches of work where repeated duplication overcomes faults as they appear in earlier attempts.
