Description:

Railroad tracks take an unparalleled beating, with tons of cold steel and freight rumbling over them day and night, wearing down rails and vibrating ties loose from their ballasts. This book examines the different kinds of machinery that railroads use to maintain and mend tracks, as well as how the equipment was developed over the years and how it works.
