Description

Railway Signal Engineering in the Mechanical Era by L. P. Lewis is a standard treatise on mechanical railway signalling, first published in 1910. This edition has been revised and enlarged over time, with notable updates in 1932. The mechanisms and practices described in this book have largely disappeared from modern high-speed railways, but they remain relevant to preserved heritage railways and the reconstruction of railway artefacts by enthusiasts. As a result, Lewis's work has become a valuable record of history, offering insights into the cutting-edge technology of its time. This new edition brings together the knowledge and expertise of the past with the present, providing a unique perspective on the evolution of railway signalling.
