Efficiency of Railroads Cuts Costs Despite Poverty
The Rail way Age Gazette argues railroad efficiency, notably higher tonnage per train, saved millions daily and helped avoid bankruptcy. It notes 28 of 35 major roads raised train loads from 2014 to 1915, and overall ton mileage grew while train miles rose slowly. Rising wages and fixed charges offset gains, yet larger cars and more cars per train cut costs.
