Railroad Finance PDF Download

Excerpt from Railroad Finance The purpose of this volume is to describe the methods of financing railroads in the United States. A preliminary draft was used as a series of lectures before the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania in 1901 and 1902. Later, in collaborating with Mr. Powell, the historic side of "Railway Promotion and Capitalization in the United States" was worked out for the Carnegie Institution and published by Messrs. Longmans, Green & Company. During the years which have followed, as time could be found, this collaboration has continued. Since the first two chapters of this volume traverse the same subject as the volume above referred to, use is made of some of the same materials.
