Excerpt from The Car Builders' Dictionary: An Illustrated Vocabulary of Terms Which Designate American Railroad Cars, Their Parts, Attachments, and Details of Construction The number Of illustrations has been reduced from in 1895 to in 1903, but this has been done in such a way as to increase the scope Of the book.

Wherever possible, duplication of identical parts has been avoided, and in this way the number Of engravings has been reduced, while at the same time the number of different types of cars and car parts has been increased. Standardization of designs and the constant tendency toward uniformity for interchange equipment during the last few years has also allowed the use Of a less number of engravings in illustrating prevailing practice in car body and truck details.
