Book excerpt: Excerpt from Evolution of the Air-Brake: A Brief but Comprehensive History of the Development of the Modern Railroad Brake, From the Earliest Conception Contained in the Simple Lever, Up to and Including, the Most Approved Forms of the Present Day Upwards of two years ago the author of this book began the publication, in the "Railway Engineering and Mechanics," of a series of articles treating of the history of the railroad brake. Favorable comment from many readers has encouraged him to believe that the subject is of sufficient interest to warrant the preservation of the matter contained in the articles referred to in a more permanent form. It has therefore been revised and corrected; and, together with some additional material, brought together to form the basis of this work. To the author himself, the labor involved in collecting and arranging the data contained in these pages, has proven of great benefit in aiding him to secure a clear and comprehensive knowledge of the art of which he treats; and it is his sincere hope, that, to the reader as well, this record of the past will prove of practical value.

This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Air Brake Instruction Book of the Westinghouse Air Brake Company The present edition of our Instruction Book is in the nature of a revision of our previous publications. It has been our aim to condense and simplify the descriptive matter as much as possible, and at the same time to present a complete description of the parts and their operation in the air-brake and air-signal equipment. In it will be found illustrations and explanations of the new devices, as well as of any modifications of older appliances which have been made with the idea of furnishing the best possible air brake and air-signal equipment. We have distributed many thousand copies of previous editions of our Instruction Book among railway officers and employees in this and other countries, the net result of which has been the education of railroad men in the subject of air brakes, to such an extent that we are led to believe that much of the matter heretofore published can be consistently omitted, especially as there are now many other publications which deal with brake subjects at greater length and provide a source of information in de tail, which may be referred to, if desired. For this reason, the present edition of our Instruction Book has been some what abridged and presents a terse description of the func tions and methods of operation of the devices supplied by this company for the equipment of railroads with its air brake and air-signal apparatus.

Download or read book Wilmerding and the Westinghouse Air Brake Company written by George Westinghouse Museum and published by Arcadia Library Editions. This book was released on 2002-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When George Westinghouse Jr. founded the Westinghouse Air Brake Company, his air brakes, railroad equipment, and industrial pneumatic devices revolutionized rail travel, opening a new chapter in American industrial history. Not only were the products of his first company revolutionary, but the small borough he founded in 1890 in southwestern Pennsylvania became a model for residential and industrial development. Wilmerding, precisely planned and built according to Westinghouse's specifications, would house the workers-skilled and unskilled, black and white-who would produce George Westinghouse's air brake. Wilmerding and the Westinghouse Air Brake Company tells the story of a town and company that grew up hand in hand. This collection of historical photographs, drawn from the archive of the Westinghouse Air Brake Company, shows how the citizens of Wilmerding lived-from the factories where they worked everyday to the Castle, where they bowled and swam. See the Victorian-style homes where they lived with their families, the park where they strolled, and the company band they heard at concerts and parades. Learn about the industry-changing products they produced and sold globally. Wilmerding and the Westinghouse Air Brake Company is an American story of a man and his vision-how he and the town he founded changed the face of rail travel and industry.
