On the development of rail fastenings a book was published that very soon had to be replaced by a new edition since much more information had come to daylight than was expected.
RAIL FASTENINGS the history of a major component of railway track
The introductory chapters of this unique work give attention to the construction of the track form as a whole. The then following chapters throw light on the chronological development of rail sections and the variation in the raw materials for them and on the huge range of rail supports that were developed to carry the rails. In the following chapters we look at the fastenings and many associated components in particular.
The size of the work is 348 pages and the number of images is no less than 1580.
Nevertheless I am pleased to mention that the price of the work is just € 34,50 plus p&p.
