The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1871-08-31
The Gauge of Railroads.

The gauge of most of the United States
| roads is on the American Standard of four feet
and eight and half inches. The Railroad
Gazette, of Chicago, one of the best authorities,
complies some facts, showing that there are
about Al 900 miles of STANDARD" or four feet
eight and half inch gauge in the country, and
only 2059 miles of the six feet guage, The
standard gauge is used on all the roads center
ing in Chicago and all the main trunk lines
with their branches) passing across the CONT
nent east and west, excepting the Erie and the
Atlantic end Great Western, the Albany and
Susquehanna, and the Delaware and Lacka-
wanna, both of which are operated by the Erie,
have the six feet guage also; but the prospects
are that all these will reduce their gauge to the
standard width before many years. There are
also causes at work to induce a reduction on
the Lackawanna and the Delaware and Sus-
quehanna.
from broad to a narrow gauge, was effected
by degrees; that is third rail was laid down
to accommodate the cars of other lines, while
the rolling stock of the Great Western itself
was kept at the broad standard. Lately, how
ever, the outside rail has been taken up alto
gether, and the rolling stock of the company
and gauge of its branch roads been altered to
the medium standard.
At the South, however, there is still gen.
eral adherence to what may be denominated
the Southern standard, viz, five feet the gauge
of majority of the roads, except some IN the
Southwest, which are five feet six inches. AL
ready the standard of Northern gauge has pen
etrated well into the Southern States and con-
sti; ties the gauge of the following Virginia
railroads: Richmond and Petersburg, 46 miles (;
Petersburg Railroad Petersburg to Weldon J,
80 miles Seaboard and Roanoke Norfolk to
Weldon), 80 miles; Wilmington and Weldon,
181 miles; the Raleigh and Castor 81 miles
Atlantic and North Carolina West by north to
Goldsboro), 95 miles, and the North Carolina
Railroad (Goldsboro to Charlotte), 223 miles ;
in fact all the roads of any consequence in the
State, except the Atlantic, Mississippi and
Ohio, running from Norfolk westward.
The St. Louis and Iron Mountain Railroad
of Missouri has the five foot gauge, and to that
have several connecting lines in Arkansas, and
one (the Cairo and Fulton, partly built) in IL
linois has been built to conform. The new
roads in Missouri and Arkansas, however, have
generally the standard gauge, and one impor-
tant Missouri railroad (the Missouri Pacifcl
has been altered through all its 283 miles OF
the track to conform to the national standard.
AS to the extreme narrow gauge-by which
we designate the tracks of three feet, or less,
which are being laid on the Colorado and Rio
Grande, and one or two less extensive lines this
side of there-it is not likely to interfere ser-
ously with any of the trunk lines or other
roads whose economy is identified with first
class service. 1t will be found very useful in
mountainous districts, where the curves and
grades are sharp, and where the business is
mostly in freight.
