Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the process of electrifying the Illinois Central Railroad using empirical evidence collected by the author during the 1913-14 period to assess the financial advantages of replacing steam engine power with electric power on this line. The author compares this data to the electrification of terminals by major Eastern railroads and discusses the advantages and obstacles of electrification, examining systems, energy requirements, costs, and potential savings. The study provides insights into the debates and developments of railroad electrification during the early 20th century, offering valuable historical context for understanding the transition to electric rail systems in the United States.
