Catechism of the Locomotive

[Bob posted on Chaski.org]:

This is a really great resource for anyone working on historical (pre-1900s) locomotives or models thereof. Cool surfing for the curious, as well.

I am not sure how many folks will want to print out the entire 638 pages or so (including the interesting ads at the end), but there is a good table of contents in the front, so it is not too hard to find a topic. And there is an index in the back. Hit the "full screen" tab and you get a more flexible format that includes a "slider" at the bottom, which makes it faster to get to a particular page.
