Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Lightning Express Railway Service: 120 To 150 Miles Per Hour is a book written by Fritz Bernhard Behr in 1893. The book is a detailed account of the author's vision for a high-speed railway system that would revolutionize transportation in the late 19th century. Behr's proposal was to creat…e a railway service that could travel at speeds of up to 150 miles per hour, which was unheard of at the time.The book begins by outlining the history of railway transportation and its impact on society. Behr then goes on to describe the technical aspects of his proposed high-speed railway system, including the design of the locomotives, the tracks, and the stations. He also discusses the potential economic benefits of such a system, including increased trade and tourism.Throughout the book, Behr presents detailed illustrations and diagrams to support his ideas. He also includes a number of case studies from other countries that had already implemented high-speed railways, such as France and Germany.Overall, Lightning Express Railway Service: 120 To 150 Miles Per Hour is a fascinating insight into the early days of high-speed railway transportation. It provides a unique perspective on the challenges and opportunities faced by those who sought to revolutionize transportation in the late 19th century.Also Contains Die Pacifischen Eisenbahnen In Nordamerika.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
