Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Locomotive Up to Date I desire to express my sincere thanks to the Railway Public for the generous reception accorded my former efforts, and trust that in this work I may be deemed, in some degree at least, to have made good my pledges to the gentlemen who requested the preparation by me of a more comprehensive work on the same subject. The number of contributors, inventors, locomotive works and mechanical journals who have rendered assistance are too numer ous to admit of my thanking them by name, but I beg here to renew to them all the acknowledgments which have already been made to each in person.
