Railway Reform, Its Expediency and Practicability Considered (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the railway systems in England and Belgium, analyzing their contrasting principles and effects. The author argues that the English system, which grants private companies monopolies over railway operations, has led to excessive fares, poor service, and the stifling of competition. In contrast, the Belgian system, where railways are owned and operated by the government, has resulted in lower fares, better service, and greater accessibility for the general public. The author advocates for a similar approach in England, arguing that it would lead to significant benefits for both the economy and the public. This thought-provoking book provides a valuable perspective on the role of government in regulating essential infrastructure and the importance of affordable and accessible transportation for all. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780265238042_0
