San Francisco, Cal motive over the combined elemehts o1 tim aud distance, _The mucb-vauniel “Flying Scotch- mab? express iain between London and Kdioburgn, in Great Briain, is still re- garded by many persons as the fastesi | regularly scteduled train in the world, | * This, however, is a mistake, the speed ut the “seotechman” having been excelled | b: s-veral :ailroads in this couutry, no- | tably by the New York Central, whose | “Empire Siate Expre-s” between New | York and Buffalo bas, until within a few | days, claimed the title of the fastest reg- ular train in the world, This celebrated | train runs from New York to Buffalo, a distane: of 440 miles, in eight hours and forty minutes. which is at the rate of seventy—one seconds to each ‘nile,-or fifty and two-thirds miles per bour, Deduet- | ing all stops the average running time of this train is fifty-two and twelve one-hun- | dredths wiles per hour. Now, however, comes a new claimant,-for n speed honors. It has been discovered that she Reading Railioid’s the 3:39pm me N eS ee Fepalar Subscription ee ea infrom Puiladelpbia to Atlantic some of the Luzerne Cveanty tuwis, “Seyenty Minute. F , er”, 1> actually the fastest regularly scheduled passenger tiaiu in the world, The.distance trom Chestuut street whar! to the Camden termivus of the railroad is about a mile and asalf, and the fer. ry boat trip and transier of the passeng- ers irom tbe boat to the cars occupies ten minutes. This leaves sixty minutes for the rulride, and that is precisely the time allowed by the schedule to cover the filty-five aud a balf miles which inter- vene between the Camden depot and the station at Atlantic City. A little figur- ing will show that this is a speed of six- | ty-tive seconds to the omile, or the rate ot fifty-five and a balf miies per hour, beat- Ing the formey record six seconds per mile and «imost five miles per hour, Itsliould be understood that this refers to the speed of regularly scheduled trains over the entire length of their scheduled runs, and not to mee pkenomenz! bursts of speed or stretches of tast running to make up for Jost time or delays. The rate of fiity-five and a half mile is ex; ceeded eyery day on the Readin : Rail- road, and possibly on 80 ue othei lines, but on no railioad in the world, so far as known, is there a train run from end to end of its route at so great an average specd as that of the “Seventy Minute Flyer.” When the latter was established it was | * not with the purpose of breaking a record, but the officials was confident of their a- bility to run a traiu safely and promptly in the specified time or less if required. It was determined, however, to limit the train to six cars to insure quickuess. This was found to be impracticable, aud for more thn a week the train has been carrying eight cars, inciuding one or more beavy Pulimans, and making schedule timeonevery trip.
