}AIIROAD SPEED. The Hartford Courant

RAILROAD SPEED. The Hartford Courant
has published some estimates Of the speed Of
American railroad trains. derived the stat :
mcuts Of various engineers. The conc uslou is
that no engine cln run over sixty miles an
hour. The stories about engines making eighty
and ninety miles an hour are ab>urt'. Some OF
the fastest runs have been lwcnly->iX miles in
thirty minutes, from Springfield to Hartford;
eighteen miles 10 twenty minutes, from Meri-
den to New Haven, ft;y-tour miles III fifty
eight minutes, on the Boston and Albany road.
One, at least. of these trips was made solely
against time. This, then, may be taken as u
fair test Of American railway speed al It's best.
The average time On NEST Of the roads may be
put at about from twenty to twenty-five miles
an hour. The average on the nine largest
roads in England is about folty-threc miles an
hour The speed of the train on the Great
Western road is the greatest of any in the
Kingdom, and is tilty-on" miles an hour. Oac
road the London and Northwestern runs It's
mail trains cghty-fve miles without stepping
the longest run without stoppnges on record.
