Just as the United States was the first true republic to endure and now has be- come the greatest republic the world has ever known, so the New York Central, one of the first important railroads to be established in America, has grown into a great transporta- tion system which, if it is not the foremost in the world, is at least among the very few in the front rank. In the development of the nation the New York Central Railroad has played an essential part. It became the principal highway over which flowed the stream of emigration to people the West, and it has remained the favorite ave- nue of communication between East and West for the descendants of these pioneer emigrants. Keeping pace with the demands upon it for transportation, the New York Central has de- veloped into a railroad system now known as The New York Central Lines, which moves about ten per cent of the aggregate amount of freight hauled by all the railroads as Measured in ton-miles, that is, one ton hauled one mile, 3 NEW Y-0 P.,K_ CENTELAL LIN ES ••• 04101110"r.- Grand Central Terminal, New York City, as it appears from Forty -second Street.

  • Natural Cement Industry at Rosendale, Ulster County, New York
    Journal of ASTM International, Vol. 4, No. 6 Paper ID JAI100672 Available online at www.astm.org Dietrich Werner1 and Kurtis C. Burmeister2 An Overview of the History and Economic Geology of the Natural Cement Industry at Rosendale, Ulster County, New York ABSTRACT: The Rosendale region of southeastern New York State is widely recognized as the source of the highest quality natural cement in North America. The North American natural cement industry was founded in 1819 by Canvass White in central New York, but soon shifted to Rosendale where it flourished for over 150 years. By the end of the 19th century, the superior quality of Rosen- dale cement was known worldwide and was actively used in the construction of some of America’s most enduring landmarks. Rosendale natural cement’s reputation stems from the unique composi- tion of the clay-rich layers of dolostone in the Upper Silurian Rondout Formation from which it is manufactured. Miners utilized room-and-pillar techniques to extract this dolostone from strongly deformed strata in the Rosendale region, creating unique bedrock exposures in mines that are something of an engineering marvel. The exposures resulting from these mining activities have long attracted the attention of geologists for research and education. Production of natural cement trans- formed extracted dolostone into barrels of cement through a labor-intensive process involving calci- nation in kilns, cracking, and grinding. Barrels of cement produced were quickly shipped at competi- tive prices via the Delaware and Hudson Canal, which directly connected the Rosendale natural cement region to major shipping avenues. KEYWORDS: natural cement, Canvass White, Delaware and Hudson canal, cement production, geology, education, Rosendale, Ulster County, New York Introduction The momentum of the North American Industrial Revolution in the opening years of the 19th century sparked a number of large-scale building projects, including the construction of regional canal net- works.

  • US Army Railroad Course Railway Track Maintenance II TR0671
    SUBCOURSE EDITION TR0671 1 RAILWAY TRACK MAINTENANCE II Reference Text (RT) 671 is the second of two texts on railway track maintenance. The first, RT 670, Railway Track Maintenance I, covers fundamentals of railway engineering; roadbed, ballast, and drainage; and track elements--rail, crossties, track fastenings, and rail joints. Reference Text 671 amplifies many of those subjects and also discusses such topics as turnouts, curves, grade crossings, seasonal maintenance, and maintenance-of-way management. If the student has had no practical experience with railway maintenance, it is advisable that RT 670 be studied before this text. In doing so, many of the points stressed in this text will be clarified. In addition, frequent references are made in this text to material in RT 670 so that certain definitions, procedures, etc., may be reviewed if needed. i THIS PAGE WAS INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK. ii CONTENTS Paragraph Page INTRODUCTION................................................................................................................. 1 CHAPTER 1.

Hi, Bill. I don't think I'm going to be able to attend the public meetings re the UCTC Year 2035 Long Range Planning, but I did want to have a little input. I am no expert on buses or bicycles, though I think more use of these would be great, but I do feel that at least in New Paltz, most major roads -- including County roads, like South Putt (part of Cty 17) are definitely not bike-friendly. I do hope that long-range planning will try to make all roads (State, County, town) -- or as many as possible -- in the County as bike-friendly as possible. My main concern is still for cars, since living a couple of miles away from the Village of New Paltz, that is my principal means of transportation. As for County roads, my main issue is striping. Two things: First, I know that years ago a decision was made to have every mile of every County road have only double yellow lines (or at least it's that way for the County roads I've traveled on). This does occasionally result in being behind someone going way under the speed limit.
