DOUBLE TRACK WORK ON UNION PACIFIC
Millions of Dollars to BE spent and
Ten Thousand Men to he EN-
DIoyed on Improvement
This Spring,


The Union Pacific has let contracts for
doubling 144.4 miles Of it's track this year,
76.4 miles of the work to be done in Wy
oming. The double tracks are all to be
placed so that they will connect with other
double tracks already laid and give two
sections of double track complete between
Silver Creek and Watson's Ranch in Ne
braska and between Cheyenne and Laramie
in Wyoming.
This work is being done in connection
with the expenditure of $40. OOO, 900 which
f. H. Hartman has planned for the pur-
pose of making 1t possible to go from New
York to San Francisco in three and one
half days. The work in Wyoming will cost
81. 500. 900 and the Union Pacific will have
1000 men working on track and roadbed
In Wyoming and Nebraska this spring.
To Reduce Some Grades.
The biggest part OF the work planned for
Wyoming is hat OF the reduction of the
grade on Archer hill and the double track
ing OF this sixteen miles. The grade at
present is so great that freight trains have
to be split and taken over the hill in two
sections. This has caused a great deal of
delay on this section of the road. The
work in Echo canon is OF somewhat the
same character and will give the Union Pa
cifc a track with few curves in 1t and put
II in shape for a double track at slightly
increased cost.
There are 1,O1O miles OF track on the line
from Omaha to Ogden and one-seventh OF

Comparisons of the Lifetime of En-

It has only been the last two years that Amer pacity of the locomotive manufactur- CTS to the utmost, replenishing their w6rn-out engines and providing new ones to meet the demands of the in creasing volume of business. The eCon- omies Of the '90s led many roads to overtax their motive power. Compar- ing the average life of an engine, this expert says that one English company had stated the average lifetime of a boiler on a basis of 35O0O0 miles to be. passenger engines, nine years; freight engines fCurteen years; switching en- zines. seventeen years, and branch pas scnger engines, sixteen years.
 He did not agree with this, claiming that passenger express engines in Eng
 land last twenty-five years, freight, twenty-SiX years, local passenger twen- ty-fiVe years, and freight engines twen- ty-sevcn years. The mileage of express engines from his data varied from 100.- 900 to 1,OOOOOO miles, freight engines from 800, ,000 to S00,000 miles, and local passenger engines from 800, ,000 to SG0.- GOO miles.
