Branch Motors In New
Test,

without the turn OF a hair ana with hardly
a tremor motor car $500 on the electrical
branch OF the New York. New Haven lIar-
ford road pulled and pushed between 45O AMI
900 tons in the hauage trial at Nantasket Mass
Beach. This was the first time the juice
had been turned on since the speed trial. aud
from the standpoint of practical railroading
this test was Of far greater value than that
of last week. Eighty or 100 miles an
hour would be Il drawing card in "A dime
museum without a reasonable doubt, but II
is II natural assumption that the average pas
senger will be satisfied and feel much safer
with speed Of Just few miles less
The tests gave great satisfaction, both 30
the officials of the road and the repre-
sentatives OF the company which fur
nished the electrical equipment. For
about two hours tho inward track
between the Old Colony House station
and Nantnsket was used in ext crimentinJ
with the new power, the tests all b ing in tlc
line of haulage. The opinion was freely eX-
pressed by several of those directly interested
that the motors in No. $500 cJuld easily
handle twice and even three times the ton
mage which they were called on to haul
II was just as easy, apparently, when at
the power house u steam locomotive hauled
five more heavily laden cars from siding on
to the main track and coupled them on to the
train of II cars. The haul was thus increased
to more than 400 tons, but the car took them
all down the road and pushed them back
again with as great speed as it did the first
haul. 1t seemed after the test that the ca
pacity OF the new motors was almost
without limit. but whatever that limit
may be-, the trial satisfied the officials of the
r, I'D that the electric equipment was alike
practicable for passenger AMI freight service,
Other tests will be made In few days the
new pow r viii be formally inaugurated on
scheduled trains. One OF the two tracks Will
be reserved for the use of the electrical
system. Trains will be run and picked en-
