that is precisely what the American railroads are

weight
This is to say the freight about times

to passenger trains he says the rolling stock so
TO 100 times heavy the people it carries. That
rolling stock costs lot Of money and uses up a lot
of material that might be otherwise employed More
over:
Heavy cars require heavy engines more
coal, heavier bridges, heavier rails greater
strain in starting and stopping, and result in
increased waste and depreciation"
This, he thinks, is the basic reason why the rail-
roads have not been paying He suggests the adoption
of much lighter cars and locomotives
Possibly Mr.. Fords well known preference for small,
light in his industry influences him unduly
when he consider railroad transportation The
American railroad tendency has steadily toward
heavier rolling stock despite the resulting need of
stronger more costly trackage bridges. It
has been accepted that the increased safety
ing power more than compensated for the increased
cost of equipment. But the experts may have been
about it, at least regards passenger cars.
1t does seem rather absurd when you consider the
immense weight of the ordinary Pullman car COM
