Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lebanon Springs Railroad: Completing the Most Direct Route From New York to Montreal and the Canadas, by Way of the Harlem Railroad, Lebanon Springs, Bennington, Rutland, and Burlington Milk, we have omitted the freight on Hay, although it will be shipped largely from some sections. Believing the section traversed by the Lebanon Springs Rail road as capable of producing as large a Local Business as any of the. Roads connecting with it at the north, we have thought best to introduce here a comparison. We find that their average local freight is tons per mile, which would produce to our road of 54 miles a tonnage of tons, while the entire tonnage we have assumed is tons, or 1000 tons per mile. An analysis of the Passenger Business, to produce the amount we have estimated, would give to four Express Trains, two each way, and two Accommodation Trains, one each way, a day, only 20 passengers to a Train, which any person of experience in Rails roads will say is a small estimate for a road, having an aggregate population along its line of over thirty thousand.
