Millions of Freight Can
Kept Rolling Over Nation
By Charlotte S, Moulton
United Press Staff Correspendent
Washington OMS Did you
ever watch the red ribbon of a
freight train wind along green
hillside, each of its scores of cars
bearing the name of different
railroad, and wonder how they
all got back to their home roads?
How does railroad keep ac
count of its wandering freight
cars?

They are returned to their place .
of origin, either empty or loan
ed, under the direction of the
Association of American Rail
roads. '
Each Has "Individuality"
Big, jovial Warren C. Ken
dall, chairman of A. A. R's car
servicing division, can tell you
all about It, In terms that are
understandable to oersons other
than 25-year railroad veterans,'
although he himself falls with
in that classification. Every one
of the 2,000.000 freight cars in
the country Is In the A. A. R.'s
equipment register, listed by
size, shape, number and other
characteristics. Each freight car
has its own . individuality,"
Kendall says.
All the country's class I rail
roads has signed a car service
agreement with the A. A. R, set
ting up rules for handling of
freight cars on "foreign" roads,
A car belonging to an adjacent
road must be sent home when it
Is unloaded, whether there Is a
return load available or not, and
if empty It has to go by the near
est junction. It the car belongs
to a distant road, it should be
loaded in the general direction
of "home." A road may not send
its own cars to "foreign" duty
if other cars are available.
An Incentive to comply with
these "provisions is the charge of
a dollar, per car a railroad has
to pay for every day railroad-
owned equipment is on its
tracks, In use or Idle, -
Pay Private Owners
Cars not owned by" railroads
rate different treatment. Fifty
private concerns such as the Pa
cific Fruit Express, Fruit Grow
ers Express, Merchants Dis
patch, Inc., and packers like
Cudahy and Armour, own some
139,000 refrigerator cars. Oil
companies and oil car lines own
about 144,000 .tank cars. The
railroads pay for the use of these
cars on a mileage basis and they
are routed In accordance with
the owners' Instructions.
How do railroads know the lo
cation of their straying freight
cars?
After ears are switched
through a junction, they go out
over a different railroad from
that which brought them In. As
the new train Is being made up
the yardmaster analyzes it, list
ing each car by number, destina
tion, the road It has just left and
the one on which it will con
tinue its journey. Gondola cars,
stock cars, flat cars refrigerator,
tank and box cars all are listed
on a form which Is sent to the
accountant's office of the outgo
ing road. If the train will move
on the tracks of the New York
Central, for example, the list

In that office is set of wall
pegs, one for every railroad In!
the country. The long list of
freight cars Is cut Into strips,
one car to a strip, and these are
hooked to the proper pegs. Then
a clerk takes dow n the strips
and copies the notations Into a
book. A new volume is started
for each road every month.
Thus does the New York Cen
tral know exactly how many
freight cars are on Its tracks,
where they are, and where they
are going. Owners of all the
"foreign" cars are appraised of
the location of their property by
carbon copies of the slips. The
records of short roads are usual
ly correct up to 36 hours of act
ual movement, Kendall says. On
the longer lines, the period
ranges from three to four days.
Kendall thinks freight cars
movements are one of the most
fascinating things about railroad
operation. According to A, A. R,
estimates, he says. If the roads
co-operate 83 per cent with car
service division rules, the needs
of the country's shippers will be
met satisfactorily.

Simpson's tank losses were
proportionate to those of the

Of the 67 German tanks
knocked out, 14 were Mark IV's
and the remainder Panthers and
Tigers. The, "King Tigers" are
faster than the previous Tiger
model. Some of them which
were destroyed had less Una 90

have beaten off every Panzer

sometimes closing to 400 to BOO

the enemy to order to get In
