Regarding the rumored four hour ilycrs
between New York and Boston, General
Superintendent Plait says: "The present
train service is entirely ample and there
is no demand for faster trains. The five
hour train is the fastest in the country
and leaving out the stops, it runs through
in four hours, and three-quarters, or at
the rats of about fifty miles an hour. I
guess the people do not ride any faster
than that. Of courses four-hour train is
impracticable."
