To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I think English railways are estimated to have cost on the average about 40,000/. per mile, and the present tendency of things is to make them cost more and more per mile ; the cost per mile has in- creased, I believe, something like 16 per cent, in the last 11 years.
14,986. WTiy should they cost more and more per mile ? — I suppose it is because the additions that they have to make are more and more expensive. They have to buy land for stations in towns ; they have to make duplicate lines, an...d other matters of that kind, which are extremely expensive. It is to be remembered that this greater cost of construction was due partly to our parliamentary system, which undoubtedly imposed a great burden upon the railways ; and partly also to the very high price which railway companies had to give for land. We all know that they were, as we may say, plundered. If comparison is made with German railways it is also to be remembered that the German Government was helped in buying its rail- ways by the French indenmity, and that their railways cost only 21,000/.
