An eight-hour clock is a clock that has only eight numbers on its face. The hour hand of an eight hour clock takes eight hours to rotate once, dividing the day into three separate periods, each eight hours long. Railway station operators once used eight-hour clocks to calculate their work shifts and the train schedules.
