The Maximum Weights of Slow Freight Trains
It is hardly necessary to mention the great and growing importance of the subject of train weights. Study of the problem has given rise to many different forms of investigation which are constantly appearing in the railroad journals and which are indicative of greater refinement in the making up of trains in the future. Most writers have endeavored to treat the subject in its entirety, comprehending the operation of both slow and fast trains, whereas the object of this paper is to present only the case of slow freight trains, and to outline briefly the history of the various steps which led to the conclusions finally reached.
