Sumptuous Equipment.

New corridor trains have just been
constructed by the London & North
western Railroad company for service

on the Caledonian railway in Scotland
The entire carriage (57 feet long) is
lit by electricity, the steam heating
is controllable by the passengers

standing to look out of the window
is obviated by a line of additional
window panes on a level with the
eyes.
Moreover. passengers who do not
desire to go to the dining cars may
now have their meals brought to
them in their compartments.
The seats and backs. with arm and
head rests. in the first class compart-
ments are of the most sumptuous de-
scription. rugs adorn the floors and
electric bell pushes are fixed in all
the compartments. The internal fin
ishing of the third-class compartments
