This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on Transcontinental Railways, 1883 From 1872 to 1879, both inclusive, the average rate per 100 pounds per 100 miles on through freight over the Union Pacific Railroad was 81} cents, and over the Central Pacific 10 cents. This shows that the transportation by sea was much cheaper. But when the question concerns transportation by land alone, which is of most importance to us, the case is very different. Taking the route from Fort Leavenworth to Fort Union, for example, the average cost by wagon per 100 pounds per hundred miles for the sixteen years from 1855 to 1870, both inclusive, was 7, whilst by rail it is now less than a tenth of that amount. This repre sents the relative cost of wagon and railway transportation, bearing in mind that any variation is always such as to show more strongly the advantage of railway transportation. In some cases transportation by wagon is twenty times more costly than by railway. Hereto attached are four tables (marked A, B, C, and D), recently prepared in the office of the quartermaster-general, which contain valuable statistics on this point, and a table (e) prepared in the same office in 1854.
