Modern American locomotive engines; their design, construction and management. A practical work for practical men
An 1883 American technical manual by Emory Edwards on locomotive design, construction and running, published in Bridgeport, Connecticut for working enginemen and mechanics. Wood-engraved line diagrams show cutaway sections of cylinders, injectors and valve gear with hatched metal, part letters, and bracing linkages under boiler shells, useful as cross-section patterns, engineering hatching textures, and labelled mechanical detail.
