In the early days of railway development, engineers sought to determine the most effective design for railway tracks to ensure safety and efficiency at increasing speeds and loads. This book presents the findings of a comprehensive investigation into the strength and design of railway rails, chairs, and fastenings, conducted by the eminent engineer Peter Barlow in 1835. Based on extensive experiments conducted on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, the author provides detailed analysis of the forces acting on rails during the passage of trains, and the resulting strains and deflections. The book examines the relative merits of different rail designs, including the popular fish-bellied rail, and proposes improvements to enhance strength and durability. Barlow's work played a pivotal role in shaping the design and construction of railways during the formative years of rail transport, providing valuable insights that continue to inform modern railway engineering practices.
