HIGH SPEED ON RAILWAYS.
Hundred Miles an Hour Must Be Made
on Separate Tracks. :

Hundred Miles an Hour Must Be Made
on Separate Tracks.
A study of the net results of the
German experiments on the Berlin.
Zossen railway with trains electrically
propelled at high velocity appears to
have led thoughtful railway men to
the conclusion that any attempts to
force train acceleration on steam rail
roads would be destructive of rolling
stock and permanent way and Incl
dentally of passengers and train crews.
AS pointed out in the paper of DR..
Frederick Schultz before the Interna-
tional Railway Congress, the best type
of modern railway equipment can be
operated safely at speeds Of more than
100 miles an hour, provided a clear
way can be assured.
This is exactly the difficulty which
it would. not seem possible to over
come in a railroad operated for a
mixed traffic. At a speed of 1Gc miles
an hour, unless the weather is quite
clear track signals cannot be distin-
guished clearly enough to be read
with certainty. This means that a
railroad devoted to very high speeds
would need to be divided into long
blocks, and before a train entered
upon a block it's conductor must know
that the road is clear.
Such blocks would need to be ap-
proximately a hundred miles long,
which means the surrender of every.
other kind of traffic which now keeps
out of the way of fast trains by TAX
ing sidings or otherwise temporarily
withdrawing itself from the track
which belongs to the flyer" AS a
matter of fact this would mean separ-
ate tracks for high-speed trains, over
or under the other tracks, with abso-
lutely no grade crossings and no
points or switches by which slower
moving trains could have access to
such tracks. Anything like a coinci-
dent movement of freight and passen-
ger traffic would be impossible.-New
York Times.
