Abstract
Press Archives
The Journal presents a selection of two articles each of them first appeared in the journal «Railway Business» in 1912.
They demonstrate the interest that was paid more than a century ago towards electrified railways considering technical (choice of electric power supply system, traction current) and economic advantages compared to steam locomotive traction.
The material in some ways echoes the content of the article published in the issue on the development of transport science and the chronology of industrial revolutions.
When reproducing the publication, the style, punctuation, and vocabulary of that time are preserved as much as possible.
Supporting agencies: The editors express their gratitude to the staff of the library of Russian University of Transport for their help in preparing the material.
