RAIL AND WATER TRANSPORTATION
' : - .'I J08* | mv u. ■ L
In.au recent statement the public has been informed of steps taken by the ^Central
of Georgia Railway to provide adequate facilities for the shipping and traveling pub-
*tic: of the purchase of freight and passenger engines, freight and passenger cars,
shop tools, new rail and a multitude of other necessary materials for the proper up
keep of a modern railway.
It is appropriate also to call attention to additional facilities which are being pro
vided to promote prompt and comfortable service between eastern and southern mar
kets via. the Central of Georgia Railway and its coastwise connections at Savannah.
The Ocean Steamship Comapny of Savannah began operations in 1848. The ad
vantages of the service were apparent, providing as it did cheap and expeditious
transportation for light and heavy freight originating at the principal manufacturing
and distributing markets along the eastern seaboard, and for products of the South
moving in the reverse direction. Modern terminals have been built at Savannah and
the fleet increased until it now consists of eight vessels, operating three times a week
between Savannah and New York and twice a week between Savannah and Boston.
Two additional vessels are now being built to enlarge these facilities, at a cost of
$1,000,000 each. The CITY OF CHATTANOOGA will be launched in July and the
CITY OF BIRMINGHAM in August. They will be placed in regular service during
October and November, or earlier. These ships are 6,500-ton capacity—20 per cent
larger than the best of those in service. They are equipped for quick handling of
freight and contain enlarged and superior accommodations for passenger travel.
The delights of an ocean voyage, permitting rest and recreation with safety and
comfort, at moderate cost, make a strong appeal to those who travel either for busi
ness or pleasure. More than 20,000 passengers are carried annually on the ships in
this line.
The greatest service the coastwise ships perform for the business of the country,
however, is to supply expeditious freight service at reasonable rates. The shipper
and receiver of freight may safely count upon the maintenance of a 63-hour schedule
between Sav r annah and New York, and an 87-hour schedule between Savannah andt
Boston. This fast service is coordinated with facilities for quick handling of freight
at Savannah terminals, and with express trains and through package cars from Savan
nah. The line enjoys an extensive patronage, not only in the south-eastern states, bull
in the territory as far west as Colorado and Utah.
The Merchants and Miners Transportation Company, operating two sailings a week
between Savannah and Baltimore, and tAvcj beeween Savannah and Philadelphia, has
recently added two modern vessels to its fleet, insuring adequate service in those
lines.
These are some of the things which chacterize the service which a combination
of rail and water transportation is able to render American business. Its worth jus
tifies the large expenditures that are being made to insure its permanence and its im
provement.
Constructive criticisms and suggestions are invited.
W. A. WINBURN,
President, Central of Georgia Railway Company.
