Abstract
- The article reports on the revival of the U.S. railroad industry. A comparison of the freight record of 1930 and 1920 is presented. The efforts of railroads to bring the day-coach rider back to the railroad and retain and attract patronage through the installation of improved day-coach luxury trains all over the country are highlighted. The challenge posed by the use of cars and trucks to railroads is tackled.
