not less than 91k pounds per yard. They

rated with large number of short, light
trains or single cars. rather than smaller

thatin this way the distribution Of power
will be more uniform over the entire
length of the line. The. cars are to be
about 148 feet long, feet wide and To
feet high, with parabolie end, TO reduce
air resistance at the high speed. over 100
