A Railroad Tn Pixies Peak.

Writing from Colorado, q New York
Press correspondent says: A railroad up
Pixies Peak caps the climax of contrast
with those old days and this new and if,
resistibly progressive era. The road il
scarcely in operation yet, although trial
trips have been made. It is q novelty.
as I found on inspecting it; indeed, !
think it is the most novel road in the
world. 1t is a cogway load, similar to
that at Mount Washington, but is eight
and three-quarter miles in length. The
line is standard guagc, and the roadbed
solid rock or masonry, fifteen to twenty
feet wide. Iron bridges span the ra-
vines and c~revices that must be crossed.
The cars are slightly tilted, but the seats
are hung on pivots, so as to give passen-
gers a level sitting. An electric light
plant at the station supplies arc lamps
with light at short intervals along the en-
tire route, and the trains are to be run al
night as well as day. Il was formerly .
two days journey on horseback to go NY
and down the mountain. Now the round
trip will be made in four hours, with ar
hours stay on top of the mountaiR. -zasA
