What reading level is Through Routes for Chicago's Steam Railroads : the Best Means for Attaining Popular And Comfortable Travel for Chicago And Suburbs book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The average length of possible rides — as is obvious from the diagrams— would also be greatly increased by through-routing. The total number of possible rides by the through route would average 70% longer than those by the two terminal routes, and the additional rides made possible by the through route would average 157% longer than those by the two terminal routes. For actual routes these percentages of increase would of course vary with the number of stations and the distances between them, b...ut in every case they would be substantial.
Through routing would thus ^nake the stea-iii lines available to the local passenger, not only for traffic to and within the more central portion of the city, but for the long rides from one side of town to another.
A concrete illustration.
The small plan at the left shows the Chicago & Northwestern (Evanston) line and the Illinois Central line linked together as they might be into a through route.
The Evanston line has, within the city of Chicago, 10 stations.
