Product Description: This
textbook is aimed at those who need to acquire a 'broad brush'
appreciation of all the various engineering functions that are involved
in planning, designing, constructing, operating and maintaining a
railway system. An indication is given of the differences in these
different disciplines between heavy rail, rapid transit and light rail
operations.
This book is well illustrated with numerous examples
taken from worldwide experience, both recent and earlier, showing how
railways have evolved through this learning process. In addition, it
indicates the likely trends for the future and the areas where more
research and development is necessary.
Separate chapters are
dedicated to the different parts of the railway infrastructure
including stations, track, earthworks and bridges together with
chapters on signaling, rolling stock and other mechanical equipment
