Transporting Goods on Overhead Tram
WAYS.

We have before referred TO the system Of over
head tramways for the removal of minerals and
agricultural produce, invented by Mr.. G. Hodg-
son, c.. E., and on the 18th inst. we had the
pleasure of inspecting a length which has been put
up experimentally to test the capabilities of the
system under the most extraordinary difficulties.
The experimental line is of a length of five miles,
and is almost of the form of a horseshoe with
the ends brought close together. 1t has been
erected on the Downs at Brighton, a most trying
position, as there are no roads over which vehi-
cles can move, in fact the line is entirely over
the land under cultivation, and In many places
it is of such a height that under no circumstance
could it be possible to find a more uncomfortable
piece of land than in this case. The greater
number of the posts carry the wire rope at an
elevation of 81 feet above the ground, that is,
some feet higher than the top of vehicles in gen
eral use, SO that were it erected over an ordinary
roadway no stoppage of the traffic would occur.
The rope is worked by a clip drum driven by the
united action of two engines of comparatively
small power at one end only thus the whole
pulling strain is put upon the rope at one point.
1t will be remembered that the rope is double,
that is to say, it passes over the entire FIVE miles
and then returns, making altogether ten miles
and a little over, when the slack is taken into
consideration. Now the action of the drum
upon one portion of the rope only will give a
little idea of the freedom of the working of the
entire plant Of course only the empty boxes
