  • 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.

  • Trains & the Horseshoe Curve Ramble
    Trains & The Horseshoe Curve Ramble Saturday, May 16, 2020 Join the Friends of the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania for this customized Ramble to railroading sites in western Pennsylvania. We’ll board our chartered motorcoach at the LANCASTER AIRPORT parking lot at 4:45 a.m. and will make a stop to pick up passengers at AAA CENTRAL PENN, PROGRESS AVENUE, HARRISBURG at 5:45 a.m.. You may bring snacks and beverages on board our motorcoach. No coolers, please. We’ll make a rest stop en route to Altoona. This morning, we’ll visit the fascinating ALTOONA RAILROADERS MEMORIAL MUSEUM dedicated to revealing, interpreting, commemorating and celebrating the significant contributions of railroaders and their families to American life and the industry. By the 1920s, the Altoona railroad works employed 15,000 workers and, by 1945, the Pennsylvania Railroad’s facilities at Altoona had become the world’s largest rail shop complex. For our included buffet lunch, we’ll experience the 19th century charm of the historic landmark U. S. HOTEL in nearby Hollidaysburg, along the western end of the Pennsylvania Canal and the Allegheny Portage Railroad. This afternoon, we’ll take a roundtrip, two-hour ride on the EVERETT RAILROAD between Hollidaysburg and Roaring Springs. The Everett’s beautifully restored “Mogul” 2-6-0 ALCO steam locomotive No. 11, dating from 1920, is scheduled to be the motive power of this train. The now 23-mile rail network began in 1954 and has a history of serving various local freight, agriculture and dairy industry customers in addition to offering tourist excursions.
