don to Paris without chan
ge in railway coaches load
ed directly onto cross-chan-;
nel ferries, is to be an inno
vation by next fall in Euro
pean travel.
The change from boat
train to ferry will be elimi
nated. So too will the dou
ble handling of baggage
from train to boat and back
again.
Beam Lessons Pitching
Three new steamers, each
to carry 12 passenger cars,
have been built by the Sou
thern Railway Company
for the new service. The
boats are exceptio n a 11 y
wide-beamed in order to
gain stability in channel
storms.
Locks are being built whi
ch will permit the loading
of heavy rolling stock onto
the boats despite the rise
and fall of the tide, varying
from 10 to 20 feet, on both
sides of the channel. In
clined landing slips from
quayside to ferry have been
judged impracticable.
lunnel lalk Squelched
The new boats will be
capable of 16 knots,are coal
burning, and will be used
for through freight as well
as passenger service.
While airplane travel has
done much to close the gap
between England and the
continent, the problems of
more direct land transpor
tation are still being consid
ered.
Talk of a tunnel under
the channel has been pre
valent at various times,and
is considered entirely feas
ible from engineering view
points, but the British war
office objects to such a pro
ject.
