Problems of modern railroad engineering aggravated by tendency toward larger locomotives and higher speeds; methods of calculation of flange forces; known or partially known and unknown forces acting on locomotive truck; forces acting upon main truck or driving wheelbase and leading trucks; formulas and figures for typical problems; nature of slip between tire and rail; magnitudes of frictional forces resulting from this slip; sliding and creep hypothesis.
