In Fig. 1 curves are given showing the relation of traffic densityto car kilometers run for various railways. From a study of thesecurves the following principle may be established: Traffic density at first increases rapidly zvith the number of carkilometers run, then less rapidly, and finally reaches a limitingvalue beyond which there is no increase. This principle applies, however, only when there is a uniform,progressive increase of car kilometers. If the development is not.
