Electrified railroading, the latest phase in the transportation business of the country, gets a thorough checking-up in a report that has just been issued on the first 20 years of electric power on the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railway. That company which now has 145 route miles electrified from New York to New Haven and to Danbury, Conn, and which has the heaviest main line traffic of any electrified railroad of its length in the world, reveals that even though electrification is costly to install, its locomotives never seem to go to the scrap heap. They do an astonishing amount of work year in and year out.
