Excerpt from Manual of Railway Engineering in Ireland: With Appendices, Including the Irish Tramways Acts The object of the following pages is, to afford to young Engineers a guide to practical work, and to all a handy book for reference. With a view to the former, I have gone into details, and mentioned trifling points, to a degree which many will think useless, and almost as if done with the object of increasing the number of pages: but so far from that being my intention, I have done my best to bring the whole within as small a compass as possible. With a view to making it a book for reference, I have given abstracts of all which concerns the Engineer in the Standing Orders and Railways' Clauses Act, and have introduced many other things, such as gradient tables (page 28), etc. When a young Engineer joins an office, he commences to learn his business, by keeping his eyes and ears open; and thus gradually picks up the knowledge of routine business, such as preparing parliamentary, or contract plans, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
