Text Appearing After Image:
64 regular electric cars and18 regular steam trainshave passed over thiscrossing daily for 25months without showingany wear on the sub-structure. The crossingis still in excellent condi-tion, while heretofore itwas necessary to replacethe crossing every 24months. Steel Foundations for Grade Crossings are no longer an experiment. They are a demon-strated, economical success. After being sub-jected to the hardest kind of traffic for more thantwo years, the steel foundations of the crossingshown in the illustration herewith are found in-tact in every respect. Not even a bolt was loos-ened during the two years service; not a particleof wear was noticeable on the steel longitudinalswhich carry the rails at the crossing; not a clipwas sheared; not an inch of creeping wasnoticeable, and what is more important, the steel show tremendous savings in the annual cost of installa-tion and maintenance of tracks. They will give yourcrossings from two to three times the life that woodfoundations give
