Col. C. F. Morse, Prest.,Walton H. Holmes, Vice-Prest. and Genl Manager, C. F. Holmes, Genl Supt., makinga system of 136 miles and over 600 cars. When Mr. Holmes became General Manager of these united roads and the ques-tion of new cars came up, he naturally looked over the cars of the different lines of thesystem on which were represented the work of the prominent car builders of thecountry. In April, i8g6, The Metropolitan Railway, W. H. Holmes, Genl Manager,ordered 30 26 ft. Accelerator cars from the Brownell Car Company. Is it not significant that all the cars ordered for Kansas City since the consolida-tion, have been built at the same works as made the first cars for Kansas City in 1870.This record from 1870 to 1896, twenty-six years without a break, is a rarity; we leaveour readers to draw conclusions.
