What reading level is The Romance of Modern Railways the Story of Mechanical Locomotion With a Descr book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


This result is attained by making the iron frame which carries the coloured glass heavier than it need otherwise be.
On some lines nowadays the same effect is attained by making the signal arm go upwards instead of down to indicate line clear.
Generally speaking, there is a signal cabin at every station, and for each line there are generally three signals. Near to the station on the side at 162 RAILWAY SIGNALS which the train enters, there is one called the home signal. It is generally on the t
...op of a tall post, for it is the most important of the signals and may need to be seen from a considerable distance by trains which are not stopping at the station.
At the other end of the station there is a second signal, usually on a short post, called the starting signal. The third is the " distant " signal, and its place is about 800 yards back, behind the home signal. It is generally distinguished by having a V-shaped notch cut out of the end of the arm. At a distant signal trains do not stop, for it is only an indicator to warn an approaching train if the home signal is against it.
