Summary: "Die Welt auf Schienen" by Artur Fürst is a technical account of the railway system, likely written in the early 20th century. The book examines the engineering, operation, and historical context of railways, focusing specifically on long-distance trains and their profound impact on society and geography. It captures the essence of how railways revolutionized the concept of time and space for humanity. At the start of the work, Fürst provides a preface that emphasizes the significance of railways as a technological marvel that transformed human movement and connectivity. He asserts that his purpose is not to produce a dry technical manual but rather to take readers on an engaging journey through the world of rail transport. He aims to demystify railway technology, making it accessible to readers with no technical background, while fostering an appreciation for this monumental human achievement. The opening establishes the framework within which the author plans to explore the origins, operation, and impact of the railway system, setting a tone of admiration and problem-solving spirit throughout the text.
