Sinossi
Excerpt from Second Series of Railway Practice: A Collection of Working Plans and Practical Details of Construction in the Public Works of the Most Celebrated Engineers
The First Series of Railway Practice having been very favourably received by the profession, the publisher felt warranted in commencing a Second, but owing to untoward circumstances at the time was prevented proceeding with it; the Editor has, therefore, been induced to produce the work at his own cost, rather than that it should have been left unfinished.
