Total cost of road

COST OF ROAD.

$599,000

The corporation is unable to separate the cost of its road into items called for in blanks furnished for report. The entire cost of superstructure, including rails, was $181,000, and for land damages and fences, $418,000, making a total of $599,000. There have been no additions or betterments during the year ending September 30, 1886. The reason why such separation cannot be made is because the property acquired was that of a complete railroad. This company has no equipment of its own, all used by it having been supplied by other corporations with whose tracks it makes connections.
