New Haven railroad general manager John H Druege told Bridgeport Kiwanis at Stratfield hotel that all land transport except locomotives has decayed and motor cars cannot supplant trains. He cited that a single locomotive hauls 4400 tons and a standard freight train. He argued three and one half ton trucks would need 1140 trucks and 2000 chaffeurs to move the same freight in the same time, requiring six and a half square miles for stand and motion, underscoring railroading’s cost advantage.
