Enjoy!
While we will be adding more stuff, there is now plenty on this site
from which to pick particular design challenges or parts thereof that
you might want to tackle.
Do feel free to post on this site a call for brainstorming
collaborators on your topic(s) of choice.
We will be advertising this effort to railroad fan associations and to
students enlisted in railroad engineering studies. We have found two
such at UW Madison and UI Champaign-Urbana. If you know of additional
universites where railroad focused engineering studies are pursued, do
let us know.
