	British Rail Mark 3 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		British Rail's third design of carriages was designated Mark 3.
		Ireland's national rail operator, Iarnród Éireann, has a fleet of these Mark 3 carriages with 1600 mm (5 ft 3 in) gauge bogies.
		The Mark 3's bodyshell design proved to be highly adaptable for use in BR's multiple unit stock of the 1980s - EMU Classes Class 317 - 322, and DMU Classes 150 - 156 all use a Mark 3 derived bodyshell.

	Aluminothermic rail welding (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		A rail head local stress fatigue model was developed to predict: the type of rail head defect occurring under a given set of operating conditions; and the nucleation life of the defect.
		Rail wear occurs mainly on curves and hardly at all on the straight but, because of welding problems, a solution must be based on increased hardness through refinement of the pearlite structure and not by increasing the alloy content.
		The rail crash at Bushey, England in February 1980 is attributed to failure of an alumino-thermic ('Thermit') weld due to lack of fusion with the rail.

	EH.Net Encyclopedia: US Economy in the 1920s
		Though suburbs had been growing since the late nineteenth century their growth had been tied to rail or trolley access and this was limited to the largest cities.
		In order to address the problem of weak and strong railroads and to bring better coordination to the movement of rail traffic in the United States, the act was directed to encourage railroad consolidation, but little came of this in the 1920s.
		There were two broad classes of commercial banks; those that were nationally chartered and those that were chartered by the states.

		Specifically, the value of rail services is defined as the change in highway user, maintenance, and safety costs that would result if rail traffic is shifted to trucks.
		Rail movements in the I-5 corridor from Vancouver, WA to the British Columbia border include many origins and destinations, commodities, and railroads.
		An initial estimate of the average tons per truck is made by dividing the net tons in the rail car by the ratio of the cubic capacity of the rail car to the cubic capacity of the trailer.

		The rail will also host the Jib Crew Challenge where five crews of snowboarders and two crews of skiers that have been hand picked to compete against each other, battle it out throughout the week to be crowned Jib Champions.
		Several riders were hitting the rails, most notably Mike Wakefield, who, in spite of crashing in the pipe, and riding the kicker all day, still managed to find the energy to pull out switch 270's on with revert 270's out and blindside switch up's along the way.
