Abstract
WHILE the travelling public is well acquainted with the locomotives and trains which transport them from place to place, much less is generally known of the no less important means by which the safe operation of railway traffic is assured. Such a manual as this is therefore welcome, as it clearly sets forth the theoretical requirements of signalling and the practical means of carrying them out.
