In 1833, Brunel was made chief engineer of the Great Western Railway, and he created a broad - gauge track that was seven feet wide.
Not only could the wheels be accommodated in this fashion, but it also became possible to carry passengers.
Brunel is perhaps best remembered for designing the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol.
Spanning over 700 ft.
(210 m), and nominally 200 ft.
(61 m) above the River Avon, it was the longest bridge in the world at the time of construction.
Besides he improved the design for the bridge over the Tamar river near Plymouth.

FROM THE HISTORY OF RAILWAYS IN GREAT BRITAIN
The history of railways in Great Britain began in the second part of the 18th century.
The first railways were horse - powered and were used for transporting coal, timber and ore.
Later on, horse - powered railways appeared in large cities and were used as passenger transport.
However, they did not last long.
In 1763, James Watt invented the stationary steam engine and George Stephenson was one of the first who put a steam engine on wheels.
He made a design of a locomotive but could not build it, as he had no money.
Some businessmen decided to construct a railway between Stockton and Darlington to see how Stephenson’s locomotive worked.
On the day when it was opened, a man on a horse went in front of the engine and shouted that the train was coming.
Stephenson, who was running his locomotive, asked the horseman to go away.
He put steam on and ran his locomotive at a speed of 12 miles per hour.
It was the beginning of steam - powered railways.
In 1829, the Liverpool - Manchester Railway was built, and the railway company offered a prize of £500 for the best steam train.
The prize was won by G.
Stephenson with his famous train the “Rocket”.
This locomotive was faster and stronger than the first one ; it could pull 13 tons and achieved an “unheard - of speed” of 29 miles (46 km) per hour.
At first, many people were afraid of the railways.
However, in 1842 the steam - powered railways were already in wide use in Britain.
It should be said * that the gauge was not the same on all the railways.
The famous English engineer Brunel considered that the * * broader the gauge, the easier would the trains run.
Following his advice the Great Western Company had constructed the railway network with a gauge of 7 feet.
That is why for many years there were two gauges in England : the 7 feet suggested by Brunel and 4 feet 8½ inches, offered by Stephenson.
It was inconvenient because where there was a break of gauges, delay was caused and time was wasted.
Angry people wrote to the newspapers and demanded to change the broad gauge.
At last in the House of Commons * * * the broad gauge was described as a “national evil”.
It was very difficult to alter the gauge as the engines, carriages, wagons were made for the broad gauge and more than 30 years “The Battle of the Gauges” lasted.
Only in 1892 the Great Western Railways was converted to the standard gauge.

Isambard Kingdom Brunel (9 April 1806 — 15 September 1859) was an English engineer.
He was born in Portsmouth, UK, the son of Marc Brunel, a naval officer and an engineer.
He worked in his father’s office, and helped to plan the Thames Tunnel, opened in 1843.
He himself planned the Clifton Suspension Bridge, and the Hungerford Suspension Bridge over the Thames.
He designed the Great Western (1837), the first steamship built to cross the Atlantic, the Great Britain (1843), the first ocean screw - steamer, and the Great Eastern (1858), then the largest vessel ever built.
He was also appointed engineer to the Great Western Railway (1833) and constructed many docks.
He is best known for the creation of the Great Western Railway, a series of famous steamships, and numerous important bridges.
Most of Brunel’s bridges are still in use.
The Thames Tunnel is now part of the London Underground, and the Brunel Engine House at Rotherhithe that once housed the steam engines that powered the tunnel pumps still stands, as a museum dedicated to his work and life.
Though Brunel’s projects were not always successful, they often contained innovative solutions to long - standing engineering problems.
During his short career, Brunel achieved many engineering «firsts», including assisting in the building of the first tunnel under a navigable river and development of the first propeller - driven ocean - going iron ship, which was at the time also the largest ship ever built.
He also set the example for the engineers and innovators who followed him and who are inspired to translate their creative thought into action.

The fire of London.
In october 1796 there was a fire in the old city of London.
The fire started in a hause on London Bridge.
The weather was fine that day, there were few , honses on London Bridge, and that's why only 4 honses were bumt.
The fire started on Thursday and was over on Friday.
The people of London built a new city after the Fire.
The standard gauge in most countries is 1, 435 mm while in Russia the railroads have a gauge of 1, 524 mm?
The standard gauge in most countries is 1, 435 mm while in Russia the railroads have a gauge of 1, 524 mm.
That gauge was finally adopted when the first main - line Moscow – St.
Petersburg railway was under construction (1842–1851).
Thus Russia was the world's first country where the uniform gauge was adopted for all railways.
In America, the gauge was unified only in 1886.

The Romans invaded Britain in AD 43 and, chasing ancient Britons along the Thames, they came to the first place where it was easy to cross.
They built a garrison there – and London was born.
They also erected a bridge over the river.
The Garrison became a major trading post.
Later, the bridge suffered neglect and the whole area was raided by the Vikings.
In AD 886 Alfred the Great drove out the raiders, the bridge was repaired and the city prospered again.
A hundred years later, the Vikings returned but King Ethelred sailed up the Thames, attached ropes to London Bridge, headed downriver and pulled it down.

Подчеркните причастия II
The track is one of the basic features of a railway.
It is also called the
permanent way.
In the early days of railroad building the workers first had
to lay temporary tracks to transport the materials to the construction site.
And only after that they laid down the permanent tracks or the permanent
way, as it was called.
The railroad track of today is quite different from the track used in
the early days of railways.
The first tracks had no ballast, the rails were
made of wood and rested on heavy blocks of granite.
Then the wooden rails
were replaced by iron ones, and the granite blocks were replaced by wooden
ties or sleepers.
This kind of track, however, was not strong enough for
heavy steam trains.
The discovery how to make cheap steel was of great
importance to the railways for, when placed in the same track, steel rails had
a life 15 times as long as iron rails.
The distance between the rails is called the gauge.
The standard
gauge in most countries is 1, 435 mm while in Russia the railroads have a
gauge of 1, 524 mm.
That gauge was finally adopted when the first main - line
Moscow – St.
Petersburg railway was under construction (1842–1851).
Thus
Russia was the world's first country where the uniform gauge was adopted
for all railways.
In America, the gauge was unified only in 1886.

В 1833 году Брюнель был сделан главным инженером Большой Западной железной дороги, и он создал широкую колеи, которая была шириной в семь футов.
Мало того, могли колеса быть размещены таким образом, но это также стало возможным перевозить пассажиров.
Brunel, пожалуй, лучше всего помнят за проектирование Висячий мост Клифтон в Бристоле.
Охватывая более 700 фут.
(210 м), и номинально 200 футов.
(61 м) над рекой Эйвон, это был самый длинный мост в мире на момент строительства.
Кроме того, он улучшил дизайн моста через реку Тамар возле Плимут.
