Excerpt from Electric Engineering: Operation of Dynamos and Motors; Electric Railways The greater part Of this volume is devoted to electric railways. In addition 'there is a section on the practical operation of dynamos and motors, Which includes a great many-valuable hints regarding the operation Of machines, locating and remedying faults, and numerous other practical points. The subject Of Electric Railways is taken up in an unusually comprehensive manner; all the systems Of Opera tion are explained, and every detail, even to the heating and lighting appliances on the cars, is taken up. Car-wiring dia grams and car equipments generally are treated in a manner unapproached by other textbooks, particular pains having been taken to produce a set Of car-wiring diagrams complete in every respect, with the result that they are far clearer than those hitherto published. Special attention is paid to the various methods Of speed control and diagrams are given for all the most important outfits. Numerous styles Of track and line construction-are illustrated, so that the kind best suited to any particular case can be readily selected. The method of numbering the pages, cuts, articles, etc. Is such that each subject or part, when the subject is divided into two or more parts, is complete in itself; hence, in order to make the index intelligible, it was necessary to give each subject or part a number. This number is placed at the top of each page, on the headline, Opposite the page number; and to distinguish it from the page number it is preceded by the printer's section mark Consequently, a reference such as 16, page 26, will be readily found by looking along the inside edges Of the headlines until ???16 is found, and then through 16 until page 26 is found.
