Transcriber’s Note: Unprinted punctuation was added, where appropriate. The illustrations identified as numbered figures are all full-page without captions. When illustrations interrupt the text of a paragraph, they were moved to precede that paragraph. For ease of use of the index, page numbers are displayed in the right margin for only pages that contain text. Words and phrases in italics are surrounded by underscores, _like this_. Superscripted letters and numbers are preceded by a carat, e.g. C^o. Use of hyphens was made consistent. Obsolete and alternative spellings were left unchanged. Spelling corrections are noted below: ‘transhipment’ to ‘transshipment’ ... delay in transshipment... pg 41 ‘steepier’ to ‘steeper’ ... introduce steeper gradients ... pg 45 ‘guage’ to ‘gauge’ ... 8½ inch gauge,... pg 48 ‘guage’ to ‘gauge’ ... on 3-foot narrow-gauge railways ... pg 193 ‘breaks’ to ‘brakes’ ... the working of the brakes.... pg 193 ‘petition’ to ‘partition’ ... plate partition across ... pg 301 ‘close’ to ‘closed’ ... is kept closed by the pressure ... pg 302 End of Project Gutenberg's Railway Construction, by William Hemmingway Mills
