Scientific American, Vol. 80, No. 2 (1899)
Scientific American, volume 80, number 2 from 1899, a weekly American periodical of engineering and invention news for a general technical readership. Its pages carry photographs and plans of railway yards, tunnels, and industrial machinery, with advertisements for tools and engines. The pictures show a freight train of boxcars on a flat yard, a curved brick sewer tunnel under station tracks, and a track layout plan, a designer could draw on their clean technical line drawings and plain period advertising layout.
