Train Shed Cyclopedia #54 Bridges & Trestles. 64 pages taken from various Maintenance Cyclopedias – Condition New! ** At one time or another, almost any kind of rolling equipment can be found in the Train Shed at any major rail terminal. When searching for a name for an open-ended series of books about locomotives, rail and passenger cars, and other information of interest to rail fans and modelers, the concept of the Train Shed seemed to cover almost any topic we might present. Hence the title of this series. ** While the text and illustrations in the various issues will come from a variety of sources, they will have at least two things in common. One, each subject will be carefully selected for usefulness. Two, every page will be reproduced from an authentic, original railroad publication in the Newton K. Gregg collection or on loan from another collection. The original will be identified by publisher, date and author (if applicable). Selections of pages will be noted, as will any changes in size of reproduction from the original. ** Train Shed # 54 contains the following information: Substructures - The substructure of a bridge is that portion which supports the superstructure or span; assorted types with many pictures; chart of the single track wing abutment - volumes in cubic yards; section and elevation for R. C. retaining wall, showing details of construction. ** Superstructures - the immediate support of the live load; Covering masonry bridges, metal bridges; many pictures of a large variety of structures. ** Bridge floors - The deck or floor of a steel or concrete bridge is that portion of the structure upon which the track rests and upon which traffic is carried. - Open bridge floors - solid bridge floors - drawings of the various types of open and solid bridge floors - Double track through girder span - drawings - Trestle ratings - many pictures and designs.
