genera! lack of definite knowledge re-
spectlng the mileage and volume OF

Railway Age has gathered, in con-
densed form, such information on the

view, also. of the fact that while the
aggregate mileage of the principal for
eIgn countries is generally known ap-
proximately, 1t is common mistake
to consider these totals as wholly made
up OF comparatively insignificant sys-
TENS. and to consider North America
as the only country in which large rail-
way systems exist, 1t is true that the
largest railway systems OF the world
are in the United States. II we exclude
