While no definite move has been made
looking to the construction Of an elect
gic railroad between Brattleboro and
Mortified, Mass, by way Of Hinsdale,
n. III, it is known that such an enter
prise il in contemplation, and the state
ment has been made by those who would
be expected 10 take q leading part in
the matter that something definite will
be done when the dam across the river
between Vernon and Hinsdale, the work
on which is now under way, is com
pleteed
The project has been agitated for
several years, but it Is said that the
outlook never was rs promising as it
is to-day. The natural route heretofore
has been considered 10 be to Hinsdale,
BY the way Of the two bridges at
Brattleboro, one connecting the island
with the Vermont shore and other con.
Meeting the island with the New Hamp
shire shore. With this idea in view
the new iron brodge at Brattleboro was
equipped with an electric railroad bed.
With the prospect Of industrial growth
in Vernon, by reason Of the new dom,
il j. now considered that the most fen
sible route would Be first TO Vernon
and then across the river 70 Hinsdale,
Electric power generated az the new
dam. will be available at prices much
lower than have been figured on IN the
past. The distance 70 Nofthfeld, hy
way Of Vernon and Hinsdale. is about
thirteen miles. A conservative estimate
places the cost of q road covering that
distance, exclusive OF bridges, at SITS,
600.
