Transit Truck
Climbs Mountain

Carrying capacity load to the TOP
Of Mt. Wilson, was the climax of a
two-day test recently given the Re
public Rapid Transit at Los Angeles
The Rapid Transit climbed an eleva-
ton Of 5000 feet in nine miles, with
out boiling the water in the radiator
Previous to the Mt. Wilson climb
the Republic Rapid Transit had been
driven through an orange grove, over
ground that was being prepared foi
irrigation, il had blazed trail
through the desert, over cactus, sage
brush and rocks, and its driver had
been stopped by a motorcycle police
man for exceeding the speed limit.
The trip up the mountain side was
accomplished without difficulty, ex-
ccpt that on some Of the narrow
"switchbacks' on the road, the driver
and his passenger made mental calcu-
lation Of the distance to fall if the
brakes failed TO hold. However, the
brakes held safely, and the top of tn,
mountain was reached at dusk, the
travellers being able to see the lights
Of forty-two cities spring into view.
The down trip was made the fol
lowing day without using the brakes
except for one time, when the truck
was stopped for a picture. Compress
sion Of the motor acted as a sufficient
brake.
Checking up the gasoline used in
dicated that the Rapid Transit had
averaged Is 3 miles to the gallon
At the end Of the trip it was neces-
sary to add but two pints of water
to fill the radiator.
