Efforts Are Renewed
To Sell Idea Of New,
Low-S|ung Rail Car
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-Re-
newed efforts are under way to
get another fast, low-slung ex-
detrimental train on American
rails.
A counterpart of the famed
Spanish "Talgo" train has been
used for research purposes in this
country for more than three years.
The current effort concerns
Train X" designed along the
same lines.
This means it would be an
iultra-lightweight passenger train
composed of short cars. each sup
ported by two wheels at the rear
and hooked trailer-like to the
car ahead.
The underslung construction
and trailing wheels are said to
permit higher speeds on curves
without sacrificing speed or COM
fort.
But It's promoters. the CheSa.
peake & Ohio Railway. believe
the advantages of it's low cost of
construction and operation are
too great to be ignored.
They have urged presidents Of
other Eastern railroads to con-
slider joining in sponsorship of
the building Of 40 cars and two
locomotives to test the value of
the trains design.
A single Train x COACH" built
by Pullman-Standard Car Manu-
featuring Co., was demonstrated
at Detroit on a test run recently.
Operating costs, it is claimed.
would be only about half that of
present equipment. The train
could be built for about a third
the cost of present trains, would
be cheaper to maintain, would re-
quire less motive power, and its
speed would make possible faster
trip schedules.
These features have a natural
appeal to railroad managers faced
with constantly rising costs of op-
teration, and concerned about the
loss of passenger traffic to COM
peting forms of transportation.
But they are showing no in
.clination to Jump on the Train
X bandwagon. They cite some
disadvantages of the underslung
trains.
The new cars would REQUIRE
special couplings, are not inter-
changeable with any present cars,
and could not use existing station
docks which are built to the higher
levels of existing train platforms.
Greatest savings from the new
trains would result from their use
in mainline service where SWITCH
ing is at minimum. (Switching
of the new cars is complicated by
the two-wheel construction which
requires use of dolly" axles and
wheels when a car is uncoupled) i.
