Trains can weigh about 6,000 tons but a locomotive train weighs about 200 tons and that much weight can cause fatal injury, and the chances are walking away from this crash is very slim.

average about 12 and half tons per man per day whereas the first-class pig-iron handler usually handled 48 tons per day. So the productivity and efficiency of the workers was very low. In order to sort out this productivity issue, Taylor selected a workman to develop a model which portrayed the individual’s highest state of efficiency and prosperity.
