Asthe load travels, the shear at thehead of the train will be given bythe ordinates of a parabola havingits vertex at A, and a maximumP,n„^l at B. If the loadFig. 41. travels the reverse way, the shearing force at the head of the train is given by the ordinates of the dottedparabola. The greatest shear at C for any position of the load occurswhen the head of the train is at C. For any load p between C and Bwill increase the reaction at B and therefore the shear at C by partof p, but at the same time will diminish the shear at C by the whole
