Resumo

Este manuscrito examina o sistema ferroviário como uma combinação de humanos e máquinas que formam uma simbiose, e explica como a estrada de ferro exerceu um enorme efeito na vida americana quando fez irrelevante o orgânico – seguinte natureza – sistema de tempo que existiu em cidades e países onde os relógios foram ajustados de acordo com condições climáticas. O autor faz o ponto que a estrada de ferro é um órgão da sociedade, que evoluirá para servir as funções que nós exigimos, que moldou e alterou – mas nunca substituiu – contato entre seres humanos, e que continuará a melhorá-la e a facilitá-la. Este manuscrito analisa o impacto social, transcultural, psicológico e financeiro da estrada de ferro no so-ciety americano nos últimos duzentos anos. A medida do progresso nos Estados Unidos é equivalente à massa de coisas que tiveram de ser sacrificadas a ele.
