GERMAN STREET CAR SERVICE,

A contributor to the Engineering
News makes a comparison between the
German street car management and
the American, and comes TO the con-
clusion that we have something TO learn
in this respect from the Germans. lie
says, for instance:
"ln all my street railway riding In
Germany. | have not yet seen a crowd
ed street railway car. only once have
seen passengers standing inside car,
and that was on an evening when the
fireworks display in honor Of Zeppelin
and the International Congress of Met
allurgy occurred at Dusseldorf. and
crowd OF many thousands was dispers-
ing Even then the crowd was handled
promptly and comfortably and with
very few passengers standing in the
aisles The Germans recognize the ne
cossity OF making street-ralway service
flexible. to provide for variations in
travel at different times. and they at
tach trail cars behind the motor car.
In even such small cities as Heidelberg,
train consisting OF closed motor car
hauling an open trail car is regularly
run"
Another feature he notices is that
every German street car Ia plainly
marked inside with the number Of
passengers that may he seated in IL and
on the platforms are marked the num-
Der who may stand there. And, further,
the German street cars are clean.
They are even cleaner than the Boston
street cars: and those who know how
high the Boston street-railway service
stands compared with that OF most
American cities VIII appreciate what n
compliment this is. Not only are the
ears clean but they are attractive. They
are kept well painted and vanished
and they look. In fact like an American
car just out OF the shops"
German street car systems arc, as
rule, owned by the municipalities. AMI
the way they are managed is credited
TO the city governments, but to sun
pose that municipal ownership in this
country would cause all defects to dis
appear and the ideal to be realizsd.
would be a very illogical conclusion
Judging from the inenlciency and dis
honesty displayed by some municipal
governments in the anagement OF
public affairs, IL l. safe TO say that they
could not be trusted with the man
agement OF a street railroad
As general rule American street
car companies give satisfaction Tn y
run their business on American bust
ness methods, which may materially
diner from those OF Europe. where
everybody Is not in 50 big hurry az
here To be sure. the service is not
perfect. But 1t is being improved from
time to time. and as it Is. 1t IL a great
factor in the building up OF a city and
its surroundings.
