The Pennsylvania Railroad now has in operation on its lines east of Pittsburgh over two hundred passenger coaches, dining cars, baggage cars, and mail cars of the new all-steel type. The solid steel framework of these cars, designed to resist shock and minimize the dangers of collision, is further strength- ened by the steel sheathing enclosing the body of the car. In fact, everything about the coach is steel, save the window frames, the cushions of the seats and the flooring. Such little woodwork as enters into the make-up of the coach, the plush with which the car seats are covered and the hair with which they are stuffed is treated to a fireproofing process, whilst the floors are cement, thus rendering the coach at once practically indestructible and thor- The new coach is longer than the standard car generally in use on the railroads of this country, and has a comfortable seat- ing capacity of sixty to ninety people according to the style of The unusual weight of the coaches give to them a solidity that greatly increases the comfort of the passengers. The seats are adjusted to a more convenient space and angle, the coaches are all lighted with electricity and amply ventilated in winter as well as summer by new and thoroughly tested meth. The interior finish of the coach is plain though pleasing to the eye. The absence of ornamentation enhances the idea of strength and at the same time assures absolute cleanliness and thorough sanitation. Steel cars are now in use on the principal trains between New York, Philadelphia, Washington, and on the Main Line between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. The number of cars is constantly being increased as the finished product comes from the shops. The Pennsylvania Railroad's equipment is recognized as the Standard of America. 53-50-1t PTY WT TUT Yee The Opportunity is Here CALL OR WRITE 116 College Ave. LEATHERS BROTHERS, State College, Pa Commercial 'phone.
