MEN « MEN -Cyclical Laying Operations Continuous Laying Operations- 00 {ioe Chart No. I, Rail Laying Organiiation. By continuous laying is meant an organization of thework such that all operations, from distributing small trackmaterial to assembling scrap, are carried out as a unit. It isapparent that the largest gangs will work under continuouslaying conditions, medium size gangs will operate under onecycle conditions, and the smallest sizes of forces will handlethe work with two cycle laying operations. On Line T of the chart is shown the laying speed of thevarious size gangs in rails per hour, the variation being from■10 to 90 rails per hour by steps of ten rails per hour. Thislaying speed is the number of rails (39 feet long) actuallyset in place per hour by the rail laying crane during the timeit is actually engaged in laying rail. No factors of lost timeare considered on this line. On Line II is shown the number of rails that can
