  • 108 Diderot, Denis

    b. 1713 Lagnes, Champagne, France
    d. 1784 Paris, France
    [br]
    French editor of the thirty-five-volume Encyclopédie.
    [br]
    In spite of a Jesuit education, Diderot became a teacher and scholar instead of a lawyer or doctor. He then proceeded to write prolifically, though many of his works ran contrary to government opinion and dictate. In 1727 Ephraim Chambers published the Chambers Encyclopaedia and a Parisian publisher persuaded Diderot and D'Alembert to translate it. The authors quickly moved away from the translation and undertook the great Encyclopédie. Political and philosophical militancy prevented its publication many times and caused the collaboration to fail in 1758. The first volume, written by many authors and edited by Diderot, appeared in 1751, and the last, the thirty-fifth, in 1776. The Encyclopédie is valued because of the accuracy with which the objects are described and illustrated in the folio volumes.

  • 109 Saxby, John

    [br]
    b. 17 August 1821 Hurstpierpoint, Sussex, England
    d. 22 April 1913 Hassocks, Sussex, England
    [br]
    English railway signal engineer, pioneer of interlocking.
    [br]
    In the mid-1850s Saxby was a foreman in the Brighton Works of the London Brighton \& South Coast Railway, where he had no doubt become familiar with construction of semaphore signals of the type invented by C.H. Gregory; the London-Brighton line was one of the first over which these were installed. In the 1850s points and signals were usually worked independently, and it was to eliminate the risk of accident from conflicting points and signal positions that Saxby in 1856 patented an arrangement by which related points and signals would be operated simultaneously by a single lever.
    Others were concerned with the same problem. In 1855 Vignier, an employee of the Western Railway of France, had made an interlocking apparatus for junctions, and in 1859 Austin Chambers, who worked for the North London Railway, installed at Kentish Town Junction an interlocking lever frame in which a movement that depended upon another could not even commence until the earlier one was completed. He patented it early in 1860; Saxby patented his own version of such an apparatus later the same year. In 1863 Saxby left the London Brighton \& South Coast Railway to enter into a partnership with J.S.Farmer and established Saxby \& Farmer's railway signalling works at Kilburn, London. The firm manufactured, installed and maintained signalling equipment for many prominent railway companies. Its interlocking frames made possible installation of complex track layouts at increasingly busy London termini possible.
    In 1867 Saxby \& Farmer purchased Chambers's patent of 1860, Later developments by the firm included effective interlocking actuated by lifting a lever's catch handle, rather than by the lever itself (1871), and an improved locking frame known as the "gridiron" (1874). This was eventually superseded by tappet interlocking, which had been invented by James Deakin of the rival firm Stevens \& Co. in 1870 but for which patent protection had been lost through non-renewal.
    Saxby \& Farmer's equipment was also much used on the European continent, in India and in the USA, to which it introduced interlocking. A second manufacturing works was set up in 1878 at Creil (Oise), France, and when the partnership terminated in 1888 Saxby moved to Creil and managed the works himself until he retired to Sussex in 1900.

  • 110 Trésaguet, Pierre Marie Jerome

    [br]
    b. 1716 Nevers, France
    d. 1796 France
    [br]
    French civil engineer, best known for his system of road construction.
    [br]
    Born into a family of engineers, Trésaguet made his career in the Corps des Ponts et Chaussées, becoming Inspector-General of the Corps in 1775. He is best known for his improved method of road construction, which involved the use of carefully placed stones in the base with layers of progressively smaller sizes towards the surface. He also emphasized the importance of good drainage as well as regular maintenance. His system was generally adopted throughout France and in neighbouring European countries.
