Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a compilation of the Massachusetts Railroad Commissionersâ third, fourth and fifth annual reports. Published in 1872, it begins with a discussion of recent legislation affecting railroads, before moving into complaints and petitions brought before the board. The book includes reports on several inspections, providing first-hand accounts of the state of railways in Massachusetts at the time. The discussion of increasing capital by the Boston, Maine Railroad Co. reveals the complex legal and financial landscape of railroading. The author argues that the state needs both new railroads and the development of existing lines. The book examines the passenger stations of the Boston and Albany and the Boston and Providence Railroad Companies with a critical eye, advocating for a more metropolitan approach to transportation in the interest of the public. In addition to reporting the reduction of fares and freights on many of the stateâs railroads, the author argues for reductions on the carriage of coal based on a close study of the industry. This collection of reports provides an in-depth look at the legal, financial and operational aspects of the railroad industry in Massachusetts during a period of rapid expansion and innovation.
