Ihre Anfragen wurden sehr ruhig durchgeführt, aber während ihres kurzen Aufenthalts konnten sie fast jede Installation von besonderem Interesse für sie in den Vereinigten Staaten besuchen. Die Untersuchung wurde in Hoboken begonnen, wo eine elektrische Lokomotive den gesamten Güterverkehr zwischen den Transatlantikdocks dorthin und der West Shore- und Erie-Eisenbahn transportiert.

The investigation was begun at Hoboken, where anelectric locomotive is hauling all the freight service be-tween the Transatlantic docks there and the West Shoreand Erie Railroads. From there they visited Baltimore, to inspect the great electric locomotives which operate theentire traffic of the B. & O. Railroad through the BeltLine tunnel in that city. From Baltimore they went toChicago, for the purpose of observing the operation ofthe electric elevated railroads, and, returning East, passedthrough Cleveland, Niagara Falls and Buffalo, where theyhad an opportunity of studying the employment of theelectric car in high speed interurban service. From Buffalo they traveled to Boston, where they weremet by C. P. Clark, President of the New York, New.

Fur-thermore, the generating plant must include sufficientlighting capacity for three stations already mentioned andthe tunnel, as well as for the station and shops at Ivry.The current is to be taken by the locomotives from an in-sulated third rail at the side of the track in the stationsand between the tracks over the rest of the line, due pro-vision being made for all switches and cross-overs. In order that a better knowledge of the operation ofelectricity in heavy traction service might be gained thanwas possible in Europe, the Orleans Company recentlysent over to America a corps of engineers t
