Automatic Switch Saves Time on
Georgia Railroad; how It’s Worked
The Georgia Railroad i« putting in
an automatic safety switch at the
crossing of Kollock and Fenwick
Btrets, which is interesting enough to
deserve notice.
By means of this switch a train can
transfer itself onto either track at an
intersection without need of stoplng.
The switch is worked something af
ter this manner:
Suppose* two tracks corning together
into one track. One is a aiding and
the other the main line. On each of
the two tracks, just beyond the switch
where they Join, is a guide rail. A
train runing towards the switch on
either of the two tracks runs over the
guide rail and by its own weight .>pf*ns
the switch ahead of it so that it runs
free onto the train.
There is also an attachment by which
a train running in the opposite direc
tion. that is, approaching the switch
from the single-track side, can open
whichever switch it likes and run onto
either track. TIPs is done by a lever
attached h the engine, which catches
hold of an attachment on the side of
the. trac k just before coming to tin

ahead of him.
These attachments ha ve not lie* *
adopted on the engines of the Georgia
Railroad as yet, hut as soon as enough
automatic switches have been installed
to make it worth while, they will no
doubt be atached to al the engines •
the road.
T rains coming into the station fr<
Atlanta will now save from three to
ten minutes through the installation of
this new device. They wlllno longer
have stop while a man unlocks,
and relocks a •witch.
At Decatur, where one of
switches has ben installed, freight
trains save fifteen. and passenger
trains eight minutes through its Use.
The place is in the bottom of a decid
ed dip, so that now the trains can run
through at thirty miles an hour, there
by making the upgrade beyond the
switch on their momentum, instead of
having to stop In the bottom and climb
laboriously up the other side. The
Decatur switch has been in operation
s u.ie five months.
The Kollock Street switch goes into
operation this afternoon about three
