Book excerpt: Excerpt from Freight Car Equipment: A Reference Book for Car Men on Freight Car Work, Describing and Illustrating in Detail the Different Kinds of Freight Cars Now Built and Various Devices Used in Their Construction, and Repairs; It Also Contains Instructions on the Westinghouse and New Yo After the issue of book entitled "Freight Repairs," several years ago, a number of requests were received from car men throughout the country, asking for a more complete book on the same line, covering freight car work. Instead of these requests diminishing they have of late become so numerous that the publisher has at last yielded to this strong influence in attempting to give car men in this issue a larger book on freight car repairs and construction. In offering this book to the railroad public, it is the purpose and aim of the publisher to furnish the Car Department with a ready means of reference on freight car work, and especially on repairs to foreign cars. Great care has been taken in compiling this data and the weights, labor charges, and other tables, are believed to be as nearly correct as is possible to obtain. In the illustrations only such devices are shown that are at present being used in freight car construction and repairs. Each subject is condensed as much as possible, and only a treatise given on such work as will be of value and assistance to Car Foremen, Inspectors and Repairers, in making repairs; inspecting; ordering material and in various ways facilitating the work of the Car Department.

Book excerpt: An illustrated guide to the wide variety of freight car equipment of the railroads that have and continue to service North America, this book covers each type of freight car and what it was designed to haul, as well as the equipment necessary to keep them all ‘on track.’ Equipment designs are based on the type of commodity that would be shipped. For example, 24-foot box cars are designed to handle 75 to 85 tons of iron ore. High cubic capacity covered hopper cars are designed for handling grain traffic, while lower cubic capacity is designed for handling heavy commodities, such as cement. See the changes for each type through time, like the early Refrigerated Cars that required ice which have evolved into today’s much larger Mechanical Reefers. Great book for modelers.

Download or read book Freight Train written by Donald Crews and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2011-08-23 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In simple, powerful words and vibrant illustrations, Donald Crews evokes the rolling wheels of that childhood favorite: a train. This Caldecott Honor Book features bright colors and bold shapes. Even a child not lucky enough to have counted freight cars will feel he or she has watched a freight train passing after reading Freight Train. Donald Crews used childhood memories of trains seen during his travels to his grandparents' farm in the American South as the inspiration for this timeless favorite. New York magazine's The Strategist chose Freight Train as one of the "Best (Nonobvious) Baby Books to Bring to a Shower." As The Strategist stated: "The Caldecott Honor Book is spare and minimal in both art and text and follows the journey of a freight train and all its cars until it rolls off the page and into the distance. It’s a good way to learn all the different names of train cars, too." Red caboose at the back, orange tank car, green cattle car, purple box car, black tender and a black steam engine . . . freight train.
