The book "American Steam Locomotives Design and Development 1880-1960" is a comprehensive history of steam locomotive development in America, covering the period from 1880 to 1960. The author, Richard D. Starnes, provides a detailed account of the technological advancements, design innovations, and social factors that influenced the evolution of steam locomotives during this time frame. The book is divided into six chapters, each focusing on a specific aspect of steam locomotive development, such as the early years of steam, the rise of the railroads, the golden age of steam, the decline of steam, and the final years of steam. Chapter One: Early Years of Steam The first chapter explores the early days of steam locomotives in America, tracing their origins back to the mid-19th century when they were first introduced. The author discusses how these early machines were initially met with skepticism but eventually gained acceptance as a viable means of transportation. This chapter also delves into the challenges faced by early pioneers of steam locomotion, including the need for more powerful engines and the development of more efficient fuel sources. Chapter Two: Rise of the Railroads In the second chapter, Starnes examines the impact of steam locomotives on the growth of railroads across America. He explains how steam engines revolutionized transportation and helped expand rail networks, connecting cities and regions previously isolated from one another.
Книга «American Steam Locomotives Design and Development 1880-1960» представляет собой всеобъемлющую историю развития паровозов в Америке, охватывающую период с 1880 по 1960 годы. Автор, Ричард Д. Старнес, подробно рассказывает о технологических достижениях, инновациях в дизайне и социальных факторах, которые повлияли на эволюцию паровозов в течение этого периода времени. Книга разделена на шесть глав, каждая из которых посвящена конкретному аспекту развития паровоза, такому как ранние годы пара, подъём железных дорог, золотой век пара, упадок пара и последние годы пара. Глава первая: Ранние годы Steam Первая глава исследует ранние времена паровозов в Америке, прослеживая их происхождение до середины XIX века, когда они были впервые представлены. Автор обсуждает, как эти ранние машины были первоначально встречены скептически, но в конечном итоге получили признание в качестве жизнеспособного средства транспортировки. В этой главе также подробно рассматриваются проблемы, с которыми сталкиваются первые пионеры парового локомоции, включая необходимость в более мощных двигателях и разработке более эффективных источников топлива. Глава вторая: Подъем железных дорог Во второй главе Старнс рассматривает влияние паровозов на рост железных дорог по всей Америке. Он объясняет, как паровые двигатели произвели революцию в перевозках и помогли расширить железнодорожные сети, соединив города и регионы, ранее изолированные друг от друга.
Il libro «American Steam Locomotives Design and Development 1880-1960» è una storia completa dello sviluppo dei trenini in America che si estende dal 1880 al 1960. L'autore, Richard D. Starnes, descrive in dettaglio i progressi tecnologici, le innovazioni nel design e i fattori sociali che hanno influenzato l'evoluzione dei treni durante questo periodo di tempo. Il libro è suddiviso in sei capitoli, ciascuno dedicato a un aspetto specifico dello sviluppo della locomotiva, come la coppia dei primi anni, l'ascesa delle ferrovie, l'età dell'oro della coppia, il declino della coppia e gli ultimi anni della coppia. Capitolo uno: I primi anni di Steam Il primo capitolo esplora i primi tempi dei trenini in America, tracciando le loro origini fino alla metà del XIX secolo, quando furono presentati per la prima volta. L'autore discute di come queste prime macchine sono state inizialmente accolte con scetticismo, ma alla fine sono stati riconosciuti come un mezzo di trasporto sostenibile. Questo capitolo descrive anche in dettaglio i problemi che i primi pionieri della locomotione a vapore devono affrontare, tra cui la necessità di motori più potenti e lo sviluppo di fonti di carburante più efficienti. Capitolo 2: Il rilancio delle ferrovie Nel secondo capitolo, Starns considera l'impatto dei treni sulla crescita delle ferrovie in tutta l'America. Spiega come i motori a vapore abbiano rivoluzionato il trasporto e contribuito ad espandere le reti ferroviarie collegando città e regioni precedentemente isolate.

著書「American Steam Locomotives Design and Development 1880-1960」は、1880から1960までの期間をカバーし、アメリカにおける蒸気機関車の開発の包括的な歴史です。著者のRichard D。 Starnesは、この時期の蒸気機関車の進化に影響を与えた技術の進歩、設計の革新、社会的要因について詳述している。本は6つの章に分かれており、それぞれ蒸気機関車の開発の特定の側面に専念しています。たとえば、蒸気の初期、鉄道の台頭、蒸気の黄金時代、蒸気の衰退、蒸気の最後のなどです。第1章:蒸気の初期初期アメリカにおける蒸気機関車の初期時代を探る第1章では、蒸気機関車が最初に導入された19世紀半ばにその起源をたどる。著者は、これらの初期の機械が最初は懐疑的であったが、最終的に実行可能な交通手段として受け入れられた方法について論じている。この章では、より強力なエンジンの必要性やより効率的な燃料源の開発など、蒸気機関車の初期開拓者が直面している課題についても詳述しています。第2章:鉄道の台頭第2章で、スターンズはアメリカ全土の鉄道の成長に蒸気機関車の影響を見ています。彼は、蒸気機関が輸送に革命をもたらし、以前は隔離されていた都市や地域をつなぐことによって鉄道網を拡大するのに役立った方法を説明します。
