Excerpt from The Train Wire: A Discussion of the Science of Train Dispatching One of the most interesting and original paragraphs in the first edition of The Train Wire was that describing the scheme for numbering switches and using those numbers in train orders, to facilitate the movement of trains at meeting points. This plan has since been put in use to some extent and has given great satisfaction and in connection with lap-sidings it has been found of marked benefit in handling a heavy traffic on a single-track road.
