TOTJG-HE WEX> EEL HJLI Experiments a3 to the ralue of Steel Rails have been made upon many of themost importmt Railways in Europe. At points in London, where an immensetraffic centres and converges, and where the estimated wear is ten times greaterthan on the main lines, they are found, after a lapse of 20 months, as perfectas when first laid, after having borne an equivalent to 23 years of main linewear. The advantages of Steel Rails are— 1. Durabilit3T. The life of the Iron Rail is 3 years, that of the Steel Rail iscomputed at 50 to 100 years. 2. Economy of Labor in maintenance of Road. 3. Economy in wear of sleepers and Spikes. 4. Econorn}- of Engine Power, arising from greater Strength and Firmnessof the Road. 5. Security from accidents arising from broken Rails. 6. Value of Old Steel Rails. Also, Importers of RaibRoad Iron5 OAST STEEL AXLES AND SHAFTS, e©RMi©TtM@ am© piston)
