Difference between Piston and Rail transport

Piston vs. Rail transport

A piston is a component of reciprocating engines, reciprocating pumps, gas compressors and pneumatic cylinders, among other similar mechanisms. Rail transport is a means of transferring of passengers and goods on wheeled vehicles running on rails, also known as tracks.

Similarities between Piston and Rail transport

Piston and Rail transport have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cast iron, Connecting rod, Crankshaft, Reciprocating engine, Steam engine, World War II.

Cast iron

Cast iron is a group of iron-carbon alloys with a carbon content greater than 2%.

Connecting rod

A connecting rod is a shaft which connects a piston to a crank or crankshaft in a reciprocating engine.

Crankshaft

A crankshaft—related to crank—is a mechanical part able to perform a conversion between reciprocating motion and rotational motion.

Reciprocating engine

A reciprocating engine, also often known as a piston engine, is typically a heat engine (although there are also pneumatic and hydraulic reciprocating engines) that uses one or more reciprocating pistons to convert pressure into a rotating motion.

World War II

World War II (often abbreviated to WWII or WW2), also known as the Second World War, was a global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945, although conflicts reflecting the ideological clash between what would become the Allied and Axis blocs began earlier.
