Produktbeschreibung
A New Method of Signaling on Railways is a book written by David Salomons in 1875. The book presents a new system of railway signaling that was designed to improve safety and efficiency on the railways. Salomons was a British engineer and inventor, and his system was based on the use of electricity to control the movement of trains. The book begins with an introduction to the problems of railway signaling in the 19th century, including the difficulty of communicating between trains and signal boxes, and the risk of accidents caused by miscommunication or human error. Salomons then describes his new system, which uses electric signals to control the movement of trains. The system is based on a series of electric circuits that run along the railway track, with signals placed at intervals to indicate the position of trains. The signals are controlled by a central station, which communicates with the signal boxes along the line. The system is designed to be fail-safe, with redundant circuits and backup power supplies to ensure that signals are always functioning correctly. Throughout the book, Salomons provides detailed technical descriptions of the system, including diagrams and illustrations. He also discusses the practical considerations of implementing the system, such as the cost of installation and maintenance. Overall, A New Method of Signaling on Railways is an important historical document that provides insight into the development of railway signaling technology in the 19th century. It is also a valuable resource for engineers and historians interested in the history of transportation technology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
