Safety of Railroad Travel

OI MAIut0uOu'0 Ouu Op0tehOu VI
Southern Pacific Co.
The Union and Southern Psci-
fic Systems are now rsaping the
benefits of years of consistent ef-
fort to promote safety Of travel on
their lines, and their success has
been such a. to inspire even great
or future effort. Within . period
of four years tho record OF the
Southern Pacific 10 absolutely
clear,-not ono single passenger
lost bis life through a collision or
dsrailment of its trains. This
means that during that time 157.-
100000 were safely carried to their
destinations on its lines, travelling
al average distance Of forty-two
miles, or q total OF 1856. COO, 900
miles, or 265 900 times around the
world.
The Union Pacific, in approx.
mately tho Same period, fell short
of this perfect record by but q
single accident resulting in the
death of one passenger.
Without attempting to make in
vidious comparisons, it may be
stated that these records, covering
nearly 1880 miles, surpsss those
of the railroads of Great Britain,
covering $4,000 miles. which are
considered nearly models of cafe
ty. That this remarkable show
ing is the result Of something
more than chance 10 obvious. and
it may DO well to point out briefly
what has been done by the man.
agement to carry out its policy of
Safety First" in the operation of
it's properties.
Within the past five years, S.
900, OOOOO have been expended in
installing automatic block signals.
Every mile OF tho Lines Of the
Union Southern Pacific Systems
to San Francisco, Los Angeles and
Portland 10 now protected.

hazard of accident. tho Union and
Southern Pacific Systems, during
the past ten years, have bsen drill.
