What reading level is The Economics of Railroad Construction book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
, G = 20 pounds per ton ; therefore, for any per cent of grade, (j= v (20x per cent of grade) pounds per ton. When mov- ing up and down grade this force G must be overcome in addition to all the other resistances. When moving down a grade the force G assists the motion, and the net force tending to move the car or train down the grade equals G minus the resisting forces. If the resisting forces are less than G, then the train will keep moving down the grade, and its velocity will increase until... the added resist- ance to increased velocity just equals G. The train will then move at this uniform velocity as long as such con- ditions remain constant. If the resistance of a train averaged 6 pounds per ton for a velocity of 20 miles per hour and the train were started on a down grade of 0. 3% at this velocity, then it would move indefinitely at this speed down such a grade. If a train were started down a 1% grade at a velocity of say 10 miles per hour, the grade force will equal 20 pounds per ton on the 1% grade.
