coming and outgoing cars reached the
enormous number of two hundred and
forty-four thousand six hundred nnd
ninety-three. Thia relates to freight
cars, to which should bo added fifty-four
thousand nine hundred passenger cars.
Compared with 1911 the movement of
freight cars show an increase of eighteen
thousand two hundred nnd seventy-six.
In theso figures tho cars arc really
counted twice, onco when they como
into tho yards and also when they go
out, so that the number of cars passing
through this terminal during 1912 was,
counting both freight and passenger
149,796. This would bo equivalent
