What reading level is Locomotive Engine Running And Management book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


A link-motion schemed for an eccentric throw of 4J inches will not work properly if the throw be increased to five inches; a link with a radius of 57 inches can not be changed with impunity for one of 60 inches.
Any change in the position of the tumbling-shaft or rocker-arms distorts the whole motion, and any alter- ation in the length of the rods or hangers has a simi- lar effect. That the link may perform its functions properly, all its connections must remain in harmony.
ADJUSTMENT OF LINK.
...A very important feature of the link is its property of adjustability, which serves to neutralize the distort- ing effect of the connecting-rod's angularity. As has already been explained, the angularity of the main rod tends to delay the cut-off during the backward stroke, while it is accelerated in the forward stroke.
With the ordinary length of connections, this irregu- larity would seriously affect the working of the engine.
But it is almost entirely overcome by the link, which can be suspended in a way that will produce equality for the period of admission and point of cut-off for both strokes in one gear.
