PENNSY CUTS OUT
GRADE CROSSINGS
On P, B. & W. Road Alone
lOI Death Traps Have
Been Abandoned

While invariably avoiding grade
crossings on new and revised construc-
ton work, the Pennsylvania Railroad
has in the last five years been elinnat-
ing all crossings at grade as rapidly
as practicable. A compilation for she
period since January 1, 1902. shows that
whereas on that date there were 994
grade crossings on the lines of heaviest
traffic between New York and WASH
ington, and Philadelphia and Pittsburg,
56S of these. or more than half, had
been removed by January 1, 1908.
When it is noted that the 426 grade
crossings which remain are, with few
exceptions, at unfrequented highways
and that they are scattered over oil
miles of road. the extent OF the com
panys work in this direction will be
further realized.
The completion Of the new Washing
ton terminal marks the consummation
of the plan of the late President Cas-
satt to eliminate all grade crossings in
the important cities between New York
and Washington. To accomplish this
has involved the elevation or depres-
sion of tracks in Jersey City, Newark.
Elizabeth, New Brunswick. Trenton,
Philadelphia, Chester, Wilmington.
Baltimore and Washington.
On Local Division.
On the division between Philadelphia
and Washington alone 101 grade cross
ings have been removed. Between
Jersey City and Philadelphia total OF
5S were eliminated owing to a revision
of grades in New Brunswick. Norris
vile and Trenton. On the Pittsburg
Division, A crossings have been elimi-
mated, leaving but 50 on the main pas
senger line between Altoona and Pitts
burg. OF 101 grade crossings between
Altoona and Harrisburg on January /,
1902, only 81 remained On the first day
Of this year.
The figures given take no account OF
the very extensive ana important re-
visions Of grade-so conspicuous in
Philadelphia-where tracks for
trains in different directions have been
either elevated or depressed, thereby
eliminating the necessity for trains to
cross tracks at grade. This has been
a very great additional factor Of safety
at places where traffic is dense
