Abstract: The term ‘visibility’ is variously defined, but generally indicates the distance to which human visual perception is limited by atmospheric conditions. The physical mechanisms that influence visual perception during the night in distinguishing lights differ from those in the day time in distinguishing objects illuminated by daylight. Basically, however, visibility describes the transparency of the air in the horizontal direction and represents the maximum distance that one can see in the atmosphere at any given time. The Materials to be used in railways are needed to evaluate according to standard test such as Deterioration of visibility due to smoke The paper deals with the study of deterioration of visibility due to smoke released on the combustion of some of materials commonly used in Indian Railway Industries.
