THE interest in tho subject of narrow
gauge railroads has been greatly increased
by the success of the little F-s,ipiog road,
which is regarded as lone of the most note
worthy events of modern engineering" The
net revenue of this road for the year 1869
was $4,000 on a capital of $50, 900; and
Mr.. D'Ahgny, New York engineer, in
commenting upon his result, says: "The
economy of the construction and equipmen.
OF narrow-gauge road. two feet six inches,
is immense when compared with the cost of
q road four feet eight and half inches.
For single track it is so per cent over an
ordinary fat country, but in the mountain
Gus or mining districts the proportion in
cresses to 10 per cent. and more. In fact,
anarrow-gauge road can be established and
will prove paying concern, in countries SO
rough that no attempt would ever be made
to construc. road Of the usual gauge.
Marrow gauge roads will accomplish q revo
luton in the railroad system of the United
States" In Tennessee, Texas, Colorado,
California, Kentucky, and Western Verginis
the subject OF narrow-gauge roads is agitat
ed, and projects for their construction have
in some instances assumed practical space.
The first road constructed on the narrow
gauge principal in this country will probably
be built this winter to connect the Hanging
Rock region of the Ohio River with the
Eastern Kentucky road and a narrow
gauge road is talked of to connect the min
ing districts of Georgetown ond Central
City with Golden City and Denver, in Colo
RADIO. Besides the lighter cost of cons.ruc-
ton and the chespness with which such q
road can be work ed, the saving on dead
weight alone is very great. Thus the engine
and tender of the Festiniog road weigh but
ten tons, against forty tons on the broad.
gauge roads; aud it is estimated that the
proportion of dead weight is but two hun.
dred and fifty pounds for each passenger
carried on the Festiniog road, whilst on the
broad -guage road it is nearly FIVE hundred
pounds for each passenger. AS tributary
and neighborhood roads, these marrow gauge
railways would seem TO be very efficient and
economical
