ENGLISH RAILROAD CoSvENRScKs.-ZeraA
Colburn, well-known gentleman, and one
who for the last few years hes paid much a.
tention to railrosd matters, says that the
railroad conseniences in England are loss
than in this country. There 10 no way ct
communication, from the train, with the en-
gineer, although many contrivances for that
purpose have been suggested. There is no
such thing as saloon-car or water.closet.
There are no breaks, except upon the ''lug-
gage van," and those are clumsy concerns,
pushed against the wheel, instead OF com
pressing il, as oars do. The speed, he says,
is not 40 great, either, as is generally sup
posed, the actual running speed being not
over forty miles an hour, which stoppages
reduce to an average Of thirty miles. The
general average of time, he says, is some
what greater than with US, though not so
much greater IS is generally understood, and
that it is chiefly due to better state Of the
road.
