Download or read book The Romance of Modern Railways (Classic Reprint) written by Thomas W. Corbin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Modern Railways Flying and flying machines, however, have not and cannot have so many interesting features as are to be found upon engines and trains, with the result that the interest has swung back to the railway, and most boys of to-day are as keen about them as ever their fathers were. It is for such boys that this book is intended more than anyone else, but it is hoped, nevertheless, that it may make an even wider appeal. The writer knows an uncle who regularly buys a certain boys' periodical. He buys it, of course, to give to his nephew, but his friends notice that he always reads it through him self first, and, although this book may be intended for the sons and nephews, it is quite possible that some fathers and uncles may find it to their liking. The writing of it has been a labour of love, and if all readers get the same pleasure in reading it which the writer got in writing it, it is going to add largely to the sum of human happiness.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Strategy of Great Railroads Busied with its transportation concerns, the house saw the earliest alignment of those political movements in the United States that resulted in the most stupendous civil con ict Of modern times. They stuck to their ferryboats and their junk rails when Beecher was the pulpit and Greeley and Bennett and Raymond were the press Of this country. While still active in their busi ness they have seen the rise of every existing political party, and they may easily survive the Obsequies of the last Of them as they stand to-day. In the stage-coach and the canal mule they met and overcame the threatening competition Of fifty years ago; and their forces would face to-morrow with equal steadiness a billion-dollar invasion of their railroad territory. They alone, in all the railroad World Of to-day, go back, owners and managers in unbroken succession, Of the tele phone, the cable, and the telegraph. Nor in all that time have they ever wrecked a railroad or maintained a poor one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government and the Railroads With the enactment of the Hepburn Bill, during President Roosevelt's second administration, began the modern era of railroad regulation and rate control by commissions. It was a measure of radical inno vation and far - reaching importance, and it ought to have been given a fair test in practical operation for a sufficient length of time. Instead, President Taft, in 1909, felt called upon to propose a new and drastic measure of railroad legislation. He embodied his recommendations on the subject in a bill which was duly introduced in Congress. It was far from being a perfect piece of legislation. The odor of politics was not absent from it. It was considered by the railroads, and in business circles generally, as um called for, unwise, and as unduly burdensome and restrictive in various important respects. But at least it was a consistent and carefully matured meas ure. It was the formal and official expression of the views of the Taft Administration, the second import ant measure put forward by it. It offered the first real test of the capacity for leadership and fighting edge of the President and his Cabinet, and they failed in it lamentably.
