Aurora Road Shows What Electric
Rapid Transit Can Accomplish

The Aurora. Elgin and Chicago r. R. has
shown the world the marvellous possibilities OF
long distance electric traction The story OF
this unique project Is tale Of success from
start TO finish. Fortunes have been made by the
men who had the courage 10 break away from
precedent and DO something that the railroad
world said could not be DONE.
Over this ffty-seren mile line full trains are
run at a speed that sometimes reaches ninety
miles an hour. Ladies on the electric cars wave
q swift good-by TO the passengers on the two
ssasm roads which run parallel 10 It. the cleo
tric cars going by so fast that the steam cars
seem not 10 move at all
This road was built in the face Of pessimism
and ridicule Nobody outside Of it's promoters
thought it would succeed. and especially was
this true Of the msgnates OF the two rival steam
roads which 1t parallels for its entire length
They laughed and said the electric road would
get no patronage worth mentioning. that people
would not dare TO ride at such speed etc.
etc. They were not good prophets. for we now
have the everyday reality Of success beyond
the widest dreams Of the electric roads best
friends. Every train that runs is filed to its
The San Francisco call., 1906-12-30

order. see 1t rolling up profits and making money
like mint, there will be slight reason to offer
the shares at any considerable sacrifice, as we
doing
As we have said, nothing stop the build
ing of this road. OF course, if the projectors
are compelled to build it unaided by popular
stock subscription it would take much longer
than otherwise, and as the road will earn
thousands upon thousands of dollars more for
every day it's completion is FASTENED it has
been planned to make 1t a peoples road in
every sense.
The road will undoubtedly commence earning
money within one year from date and will do
it by opening up and operating the first sec
tion, a stretch Of track about one hundred miles
long and ending at Goshen, Ind. This section
runs through a region peculiarly rich in traffic
possibilities Running through the towns of Whit
ing, Hammond, Toleston, Hobart, Chesterton,
Gary, New Carlisle, Laporte. South Bend, Elk
hart, Goshen and many others, it serves popu-
ation of 100. 900.
It has been shown that electric service through
a region of this character Fields a gross traffic
income of from $40 to SIT so per capita of the
population Even at the lower estimate of $40
per capita, the gross profits figure up to one
million nine hundred thousand dollars. Our
operating expenses will not exceed so per cent
of the gross receipts. and this would leave net
earnings of nine hundred and fifty thousand dol
lars 1880. 0O0) section of road only 100
miles long. This would enable the road to pay
dividends of about 133 per cent the money

fullest capacity, and the trains contain as many
cars the engines can draw without a sacrifice
Of speed. Dining cars and buffet are provided.
and TO the minutest detail everything is most
luxurious, comfortable and convenient. In the
five years that the road has been running not one
serious accident has occurred.
The Aurora road has been the greatest money
maker of any electric project ever hoated. max
ing rich men out Of some who had but nominal
fortunes at the outset.
SO great is the earning power of this road to-
day that it pays interest on securities amount
ing to more than ten million dollars and is one
Of the greatest railroad successes the world has
ever known. What this road has done will be
done on an incomparably greater scale by the
new electric line between Chicago and New
York.
The pleasure and comfort of electric travel,
together with its great speed, appeal TO the
average person so strongly that he avails him
self of them when he can. No smoke or cinders
smooch the passengers, no sickening stencil from
cattle trains befouls the air, and one is not
jolted from side to side, lurched around
curves. There are practically no a
high-speed electric line for such speed cannot
be maintained except straightaway
course
Wherever electric lines have been introduced
they have brought about new conditions, seeming
TO create a class Of traffic peculiarly their own
and making money where the wise ones said it
could never be done. In the case Of the Aurora,
Elgin and Chicago road. the only high speed cleo
tric road as yet in actual operation, two steam
roads parallel it the entire way, and yet the
electric road has built up enormous traffic of
its own without appreciably crippling either Of
the steam roads in their suburban patronage.
The electric road presents such delights Of travel
that new traffic is actually created out of a
class Of people who have heretofore travelled but
little not at ALL

Interest in the great Electric Railroad that
VIII cut down the running time between Chi
cago and New York 10 ten hours and carry
passengers at $1,000 fare continues IN
ahated. People who were skeptiesl at first as
10 the reality Of such gigantic project
have now become convinced by the actual
showing OF work already done. The first grad
ing was begun on the first DAY of September,
and every day sees additional right of way
made for track laying. The Chicago-New
York Electric Air Line Railroad viii run over
q track that scarcely verges from a straight
line in its entire course Of $50 miles. thereby
making the distance $50 miles shorter than
the shortest existing steam railroad line Over
this direct route viii be run hourly electric
trains at a speed that will reach maximum
Of 100 miles an hour and maintain an average
of 75 miles. No steam road could have ever
hoped 10 DO this. because 1t would have been
impossible to carry enough fuel and water to
maintain such speed. Moreover. the limit Of
human endurance has been reached by the stok-
ers on steam locomotives According TO War

locomotive shovels as high 25 tons Of coal
on single trip The new electric engines
have no such handicap, for ample and uniform
power comes to them at all times from NAM
moth power-houses located so miles apart along
the line. Their rotary motors run without
thump or jar and enable them TO do work
under which steam locomotive would not last
six months.
There is not the slightest question that the
road will he built and in running order on
schedule time. Every one Of its original
projectors is a practical railroad man and their
personal honor and standing are such as to
guarantee the complete success Of the project
They have placed their entire fortunes in the
enterprise and have urged their personal friends
70 do the same.

ECONOMY of Electric Power

Electric power has such great economic ad-
vantage over steam that there can be ques-
tiou that the Chicago-New York line win pay
Steam roads cannot keep up high speed for
any great distance. The FIRE slacks down and
necessitates raking, the water supply becomes
a serious problem and the high speed soon stops.
Electric trains don't have TO slack speed for q
moment If the power is on, and the maintenance
OF seventy-nre miles hour between New York
and Chicago becomes easy matter. Steam
locomotives are compelled, at high speed, to
burn the best Of coal, whereas the electric power
Is generated from very low-priced coal. even
screenings-sorhe Of IT costing less than IS cents
q ton. This In itself is enormous advantage
IN favor OF the electric road, but ii doesn't
begin 70 be all. The electric motor, being ro-
fary instead Of reciprocating. works with a
smoothness that means thousands Of dollars
saved in wear and tear from vibration.
Besides the great economy Of electric power
over steam, this new electric line VIII have the
advantage Of economy IN construction With
rails costing more than twice much they
DO now. and with waste and extravagance char
acterizing every railroad project of the past,
old-time lines show some ''cost per mile rec
ords that are amazing. The new electric road
viii cost somewhat more to build than steam
road would but this cost VIII include power
houses. and by virtue Of the direct route there
are $50 miles less to construct than the old
time road builders had to pay for.
