planting himself if the State fur

Airbrakes are more powerful than
the modern locomotive itself. For
train of two locomotives and ten pas
senger coaches to attain speed of
60 miles an hour it is necessary for
the locomotives to accelerate for 1909
seconds and travel eight miles. The
airbrakes will stop this train in q
seconds and within a distance of 1000
feet. In years to come, when the
airbrake has been developed far be-
yond what it is today, we will likely
travel over our railroads twice as
fast in trains that are twice as long.
