Download or read book The Lake Shore Electric Railway Story written by Herbert H. Harwood, Jr. and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1901 to 1938 the Lake Shore Electric claimed to be—and was considered by many—"The Greatest Electric Railway in the United States." It followed the shore of Lake Erie, connecting Cleveland and Toledo with a high-speed, limited-stop service and pioneered a form of intermodal transportation three decades before the rest of the industry. To millions of people the bright orange electric cars were an economical and comfortable means of escaping the urban mills and shops or the humdrum of rural life. In summers during the glory years there were never enough cars to handle the crowds. After reaching its peak in the early 1920s, however, the Lake Shore Electric suffered the fate of most of its sister lines: it was now competing with automobiles, trucks, and buses and could not rival them in convenience. The Lake Shore Electric Railway Story tells the story of this fascinating chapter in interurban transportation, including the missed opportunities that might have saved this railway.

Download or read book Pacific Electric Railway written by Steve Crise and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Pacific Electric Railway originally provided reliable transportation across more than 1,000 miles of track. Postwar society's affair with the automobile led to the loss of an infrastructure that could have formed the basis for an enviable modern light-rail system, one that current society would be happy to utilize. Authors Steve Crise and Michael Patris look back at the railway and its landscape today. Both serve on the board of the Pacific Electric Railway Historical Society, from whose archives most of these images are taken.

Book excerpt: Of the rail lines created at the turn of the 20th century, in order to build interurban links through Southern California communities around metropolitan Los Angeles, the Pacific Electric grew to be the most prominent of all. The Pacific Electric Railway is synonymous with Henry Edwards Huntington, the capitalist with many decades of railroad experience, who formed the "P. E." and expanded it as principal owner for nearly its first decade. Huntington sold his PE holdings to the giant Southern Pacific Railroad in 1910, and the following year the SP absorbed nearly every electric line in the fourcounty area around Los Angeles in the "Great Merger" into a "new" Pacific Electric. Founded in 1901 and terminated in 1965, Pacific Electric was known as the "World's Great Interurban."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Electric Railway Review, Vol. 18: July 1 to December 31, 1907 The intolerable state of affairs which makes an appeal to the courts imperative for preservation of the property is best shown by the figures submitted by the company. These fig ures were presented to the New York state tax-commission, as stated in the Electric Railway Review of March 30, 1907, but as the appeal to that body was ineffectual, they are now submitted to the court. The total assessments for special franchises of the companies constituting the system amount for this year to an increase of per cent over the previous year. The net surplus of the company, Mr. Williams says, increased last year but per cent over the previous year. The extent of the preceding increases in spe cial franchise assessments is also stated by Mr. Williams. The 1906 assessment was per cent over that for 1905, which was per cent above that for 1904. Since the first assessment made in 1900 by the commission named under the new franchise tax law by Theodore Roosevelt, as governor of New York state, the increase in assessments has been steady, making the figure for last year 149 per cent greater than the total for the first year. By paying all taxes and accumulated penalties the company complied with the provisions of the law as soon as its validity was established. But since 1904 the large increases have compelled it to resist payment except on the value of tangible property. In 1907 the total direct assessment, state and local, against the properties of the system is rep resenting, at the tax rate for last year, a tax of Large as this total is, it does not represent nearly the sum of the tribute levied against the company, which must pay also state taxes on gross revenues and on the right to exist as a corporation, local taxes on revenues and cars, and license fees for carrying passengers over two bridges in New York.
