ic p r many trains
m a &1 RUN AT A L0SS
Passengers seldom know how much it costs to run a pass-
enger train, and few passengers know how many trains are
operated solely for the accommodations of the public and
at a loss to the railroads. The average cost per mile of
operating the American passenger train is estimated
at approximately $1-60. On this basis, the Missouri, Kan-
sas and Texas Lines in June operated more than fifty trams
each day, exclusive of those on short branch lines, the earn-
ings of which did one equal the average cost.
Many trains were operated, the earningsof which-did not
equal the cost of fuel, supplies, wages of train and engine
1 repairs. In .June, these
2 approximately a doJat- a
ing trains on short branch

not earn a dollar a mile.
On the Wichita Falls and Northwestern, the
earnings are particularly light. In June trains
1 and 2, between Elk City and Wichita Falls,
earned an average of 92c a mile. Trains 11 and
12, between Frederick and Wichita Falls, hand-
ling mostly through Oklahoma City traffic,
earned only $1.10 a mile.
In the face of these figures, it ihust be conceded that the
railroad suffers actual loss on a large proportion of it local
passenger train service, and that is is maintained solely for
the convenience of the public.
