Riassunto

Excerpt from Notes on Electric Railway Economics

Some time prior to the delivery of these lectures a series of hearings was held by the Railroad Commissioners of New York State to consider the application of the New York and Port Chester Railroad Company for a charter, and during this hearing the practicability from both an engineering and com mercial standpoint of interurban high-speed electric railways was fully demonstrated. Although the New York and Port Chester Railroad is not yet in operation, I used considerable of the engineering and other data placed in evidence at this hearing, as well as much other data worked up in developing and demonstrating the commercial and engineering details of of the New York and Port Chester Railroad in the Lehigh University lectures, and have also employed some of the same data in this book. Neither the lectures, or this book, were or are given as a treatise or exhaustive treatment of the subject as a whole, or of the details as indicated in the chapter headings. The lectures were intended to point the way, and embody some of the results of twelve years of practice and application. This book is presented with the same object in View.
