    About this ebook

    Part of our value-added professional format series, the Railway Operating and Safety Rules Field Manual (FM 55-21) provides a standard code of operating rules for personnel engaged in the operation of military railways. The rules given in this publication are consistent with those of railroads throughout the United States and many foreign countries. Some rules have been modified to be adaptable to operating conditions peculiar to military railroads.

    The US Army may be called on to operate railroads worldwide. In order to work productively and safely, personnel must be knowledgeable of and obey the rules and special instructions of the military railroad. Commanders of railway units and installations or activities assigned and using railway equipment are responsible for selecting, training, and testing railway operating personnel

    As a bonus, this reproduction includes FM-1, The Army Field Manual, a capstone manual containing the vision for the Army - sold separately for $5.99. FM 1 establishes the fundamental principles for employing Landpower. The most important of these are the Army's operational concept and the fundamentals that support it. They form the foundation for all Army doctrine. All Soldiers should understand and internalize them. FM 1 describes the American profession of arms, the Army's place in it, and what it means to be a professional Soldier.

    This is a privately authored news service and educational publication of Progressive Management.
