EUROPEAN ROYALTIES
ON THE RAIL.
President M'Kinley's great tour through the West and South in a handsomely appointed tram, specially fitted for the trip, has excited some discussion among railroad men regard ing private trains. Some of the crowned heads of Europe own not only private trains but private locomotives, and even a private railway. has been heard of.
In Great Britain every line of consequence has its royal train, and King Edward VII has the legal right to travel anywhere at will free of cost. The royal' train' proper, and the one most generally used by the late Queen Vic toria, was built at Swindon works. Her Majesty first travelled in it from Windsor to London on the occasion of the Jubilee in 1897. This train is composed of six carriages, the total length of which is 465 feet, and it is put together with the royal saloon in the centre, two saloon carriages, one at each end of the royal carriage, one first-class carriage and two brake vans, one at each end of the train.
The King's car is fifty-four feet long and the saloon compartment, in the centre, has a domed roof. At each end of the carriage are compart ments and lavatories for the site. The car riage is finished in satinwand, with panels of sycamore; the domed roof is decorated with

The carriages are chocolatecolour and bear the imperial eagle in black. Yellow blinds, closely drawn, hide the interior from inquisitive glances, and when the crimson cloth covered steps are brought out, the platform is closed to the public.
In Germany when royalty travels, schedules, express trains and everything else go by the board. At Frankfort one evening I sat in an express train for fifty-five minutes after starting time. Hundreds of passengers were fretting and fuming, as they had to make other railroad connections, but could get no explanation of the delay. Finally a "saloon" car was coupled to our train, a roll of bright carpet was laid, a section of the platform was cleared, some hothouse palms were put out and then another -a local train from somewhere or other pulled in, and with bowings and scrapings a lot of officials escorted half a dozen "person. ages from one train to the other,

To any one in any way connected with the working of the train a spicial time table is supplied It states the exact tine that the royal train will pass or stop at each station and full particulars of the stoppage of certain other trains, and many other rules and regulations must be strictly adhered to.

On the train, which carries two guards and the usual cord attachment to the whistle of the engine, there are also a staff of telegraphers and telegraph instruments, so that in caac of emergency communication may be made at Any point on the line.
An amusing incident happened during one of the late Queen's railway joumeys a few years ago. The train bad to pass a certain farat on the way, and the farmer and his family and all the farm servants gathered at an adjacent level crossing to gaze at the train as it passed. One boy, with loyal intentions, had secured his mother's best scarlet shawl to wave, as 2. Bag, and he ran forward to a little hill near the crossing to get the first glimpse of the train. At last it came in sight, and the youngster shouted and cheered, waving his flag frantically. Imagine the surprise of the people when the royal train slowed and stopped. In an instant a railway official had seized the bay and cried,:
"Down with that shawl! Don't you know you are stopping the royal train 1"
The driver had taken it as a signal of danger.
Her Majesty was much amused."
HOW THE CZAR TRAVELS, The Russian imperial train is, without doubt, the most costly in the world. In its interior furnishing it surpasses in magnificence the train de luxe lately built for the German Emperor, one of the most luxuriously furnished trains that ever ran over the iron road. Some idea of its splendour may be had when it is stated that 5500,000 has been spent upon it. It is a palace. on wheels. It consists of eleven carriages. The royal carriages are in the centre of the train.
