Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an essential guide for streetcar motormen seeking to fully understand the machinery they operate. At the time of its writing, all motormen were to be examined by a state board of examiners on their knowledge of motors. The author, a foreman of car houses, was looked to as an authority on the subject. He wrote this book to share his knowledge and help motormen pass their exams, avoid accidents, and increase their knowledge of how their cars operated. The author dedicated himself to writing in simple language to explain electricity, motors, and the equipment used to run streetcars so that readers of all educational levels could understand. This book is an invaluable look at a specific moment in the development of mass transit and the technology of the electric motor. Its straightforward explanations will be of great value to budding electricians today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
