LIGHT RA1LG FOR HARD TRAFFIC. Germany Sets at Naught an Axiom of Railroad Engineering Here. German raiiroad engineers have surprised the whole engineering world by disregarding In the new electric railway in Berlin what has been looked upon as an axiom of good railroading. Contrary to modern custom they have equipped a high-speed electric railway with light rails, and ties which in some places are five feet apart. The road is now complete and in operat':;:\ and British and American engineers are watching it with the greatest interest to see how long it will last, confident in their own minds that very soon there must be a collapse. If the railroad is running in good order at the end of several years it may lead to the reversal of some present ideas in railroad construction. American engineers have held that heavy rails nre a necessity at any cost, particularly on roads operated by electric power, and British engi ticcrs have supported this view, both in argument and in practice. "It might be possible to operate such a road, with very light rolling stock moving at low speed," says the Engineering News, "but this road is to carry electric motor cars weighing twenty tons and three-car trains are to run at speeds of thirty miles an hour at intervals of two and onehalf to five minutes. If this track maintains its line and surface under electric motor car traffic, there must be something in German conditions very different from those which obtain in the United States."
