The Chesapeake Beach Railway,
into which the late David H. Moffatt
put 1885, 900, and which has been on the
market for several years, has been
sold by the executors of the estate to
the New York banking house of F. ].
Loseman & Co. The price is not dis
closed, but is said to he about $3.50, 900.
The reports that the Chesapeake Beach
Railway had been sold have nearly al
ways been accompanied by reports
that the road would be electrified, !"
and that it would either obtain or lease
right of way into the center of Wash
ington. The fact that the terminals could
be reached from Washington only by a
long trolley ride have been great dis
advantage to its managers in building
up business.
