Central of Georgia Shows Railways Are
Safe and Are Growing Safer
It has been more than five years since a passenger riding in a coach of the Central of
Georgia Railway has been fat illy injured, and during that period more than 29,000,000
passengers have been handled.
This record, splendid as it it, we do not claim is exceptional. It merely goes to show
as do other figures, that American railways as a whole are making an excellent record in
the reduction of fatalities. The reason for this is to be found in the fact that railway men
l ave been trained to give safety precedence over all other things. To them the most famil
iar rule in the standard book of railway rules roads: “In case of doubt or uncertainty, the
safe course must be taken.” .
While railway traffic has greatly increased in recent years fatalities on the railroads
have been decreasing. 1920 was a record year for traffic, yet the number of fatalities was
the smallest in 22 years. 1921 in turn broke this record by a reduction of 14 per cent, in
the number of fatalities, according to the report of the Interstate Commerce Commission.
The unit by which freight traffic is measured is the ton mile and the unit of passenger
traffic is the passenger mile. Statistics show that there has been a steady increase in both
for the past ten years, the increase in ton miles in 1920 over 1911 being 64 per cent, and
the increase in passenger miles being 42 per cent. Yet, despite this vast increase in busi
ness which required many more employes to handle the greater tonnage and which subjected
so many more passengers to danger, the total fatalities decreased 33 per cent, in 1920 from
1911.
In 1920 the railroads of the United States carried 16,239,774 passengers to each pas
senger fatally injured in a train accident. Trespassing and automobile grade-crossing acci
dents contribute heavily to the fatalities on the railroads. In 1920 trespassers fatally injured
numbered 12 73. Together these accounted for nearly one-half of all the fatalities on the rail
roads during the year.
Not many would believe that there are nearly as many persons accidentally drowned in
a year as are fatally injured on the railways. The rate of deaths per hundred thousand popu
lation in the United States in 1920 from some of the commoner causes of fatalities was
as follows: Falls. 12.3; Automobile, 10.8; Burns, (not conflagrations), 7.9; Railroads
6.6; Drownings 5.9. .
The Central of Georgia Railway has handled its share of increased business and at the
same time has been able to show a substantial lessening of fatalities on its lines. In 1920
for instance, the ton miles showed an increase of 51 per cent, over 1914; the passenger
miles an increase of 32 per cent, while the fatalities showed a of 26 per cent.
We believe that the public will agree with us that the handling of a heavier business
with a smaller number of fatalities is a barometer of railway efficiency. The Central ol
Georgia Railway pledges renewed effort toward rendering the public a transportation ser
vice of safety and satisfaction and asks the co-operation of the public.
Constructive criticism and suggestions are invited. »
