Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an account of my experiences growing up in the Southern Appalachian Mountains, about exciting situations I found my self in as a pilot and aircraft owner for 20 some years. Also, many times I have been asked about the operations of a railroad. I have tried in this book to relate some of these operations while telling what goes on in the cab and the sights that are seen through a locomotive windshield. I have also related some of the narrow escapes and dangerous situations I have found myself in as an Engineer for forty years. Sometimes it was humorous, sometimes scary, sometimes deadly. So all you guys and gals, who always thought you wanted to be a locomotive engineer let me tell you about what you missed. In some instances you'll be glad you did.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Model Locomotive Engineer, Fireman, and Engine-Boy: Comprising a Historical Notice of the Pioneer Locomotive Engines and Their Inventors; With a Project for the Establishment of Certificates of Qualification in the Running Service of Railways A great philosopher has said that three things are essential to perform anything well: namely, Models, Rules, and Practice. In view of the granting of certificates to locomotive engineers, firemen, and engine-boys, I have endeavoured to place before them models of self-help and self-reliance rule: that have proved themselves correct a thousand times over and practice of the best possible railway service.

Download or read book American Steam Locomotives written by William L. Withuhn and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2019-03-01 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nearly half of the nation's history, the steam locomotive was the outstanding symbol for progress and power. It was the literal engine of the Industrial Revolution, and it played an instrumental role in putting the United States on the world stage. While the steam locomotive's basic principle of operation is simple, designers and engineers honed these concepts into 100-mph passenger trains and 600-ton behemoths capable of hauling mile-long freight at incredible speeds. American Steam Locomotives is a thorough and engaging history of the invention that captured public imagination like no other, and the people who brought it to life.
