It just means that the railway is not compressed.
Say that the railway was compressed, then you'd make a compression check and the answer would be positive, but if it isn't it means it's not compressed.
When something is compressed, it means that the temperature was too cold for the railway so it compressed.
Hope it helped! :P WHAT???? this person is lost. Ok, when you do a compression test and you receive no compression, make sure your test gage is a working gage. with no compression this indicates that exhaust / intake valves are in the open position which stops the cylinder from sealing for compression, possible bent or broken valve,valve spring,or lobe on cam may be worn. Now if you have a low compression reading on a cylinder i recommend you spray WD 40 into cylinder sparingly and test again,called a (wet test ) if compression raises you have bad piston rings, if it stays the same, its a valve issue, possible piston failure
