Excerpt from Up-to-Date New York Air Brake Catechism: The Only Complete Treatise on the New York Air Brake and Air Signaling Apparatus, Giving a Detailed Description of All the Parts, Their Operation, Troubles, and the Methods of Locating and Remedying the Same The book has been written with the idea of furnish ing information, not only for those who are interested in handling the brake, but for those as well who have to do with the installation and maintenance of it. Detailed information is contained bearing on the peculiarities, troubles, care and remedies, and a spe cial effort has been made to have the index so ar ranged that any point may be not only located in a particular chapter, but on a special page, thus mak ing it a book Of ready reference in which the informa tion desired may be quickly found. In using the index, points in question may best be found by first locating the piece of apparatus concerning which information is desired; the point at issue may then be readily located under the main heading. Chapters which contain a large amount of general information on the general subject of brakes, train handling, train inspection, leverage, formulae, rules, etc., will be found, the object sought being to make the book as complete and interesting as possible to those interested in all branches of railroad service.
