MANY radical changes in railway operation have occurred within recent years which render a study of the Design of Railway Location a matter of vital importance in railway engineering at the present time. Owing to these changes in operating conditions, many of the railways of the country are being revised and relocated, and extensive regrouping and rearrangements of systems have been made and others will probably be made in the future. These facts call for a. careful study of the principles that affect the location of a railroad, and, at the same time, the more complete data related to operation now available permit a more exact and scientific study of this subject than has been possible previously. This volume was prepared with a view chiefly to the work that is being done in this connection, although considerable attention is devoted to the projection of new location.
The book is intended for use as a text in classes in technical' schools rather than as a treatise on the subject, although it is hoped that the material included may be of value to those engineers engaged in practical railroad work. It has grown out of notes prepared for the author's classes in railway location and, in some respects, presents an outline rather than an exhaustive treatment.
