The Trackman's Helper is a comprehensive instructional guide for track foremen, written by Joseph Kindelan and originally published in 1898. The book provides detailed information on the construction, maintenance, and repair of railroad tracks, as well as the tools and equipment used in the industry. It covers topics such as the laying of ties and rails, the use of ballast, and the proper alignment and grading of tracks. The book also includes sections on the management of track gangs, the importance of safety, and the role of the track foreman in overseeing track maintenance operations. With its practical advice and detailed illustrations, The Trackman's Helper remains a valuable resource for anyone working in the railroad industry or interested in the history of rail transportation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
