How to use railways in a sentence?

  1. Hiram Stevens Maxim:

    But I do not think the flying machine will ever be used for ordinary traffic and for what may be called "popular" purposes. People who write about the conditions under which the business and pleasure of the world will be carried on in another hundred years generally make flying machines take the place of railways and steamers, but that such will ever be the case I very much doubt.

  2. Emily Ferris:

    Some of the logistical problems they had were partly because they never really managed to take major railway hubs at all, frankly, in the whole country, and because the Russian motorized ground forces rely on the railways to move all of their troops, their hardware and their tanks. Because they never really managed to control those hubs, they never really managed to push particularly far into Ukrainian territory, and it meant that they then had to rely on off-road capabilities.

  3. Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere:

    I have therefore ordered that the federal police visibly increase their presence at airports and railways stations and that there are random checks, which are not visible but very effective, in border areas.

  4. Kazuhiko Higuchi:

    The assistance will help railways better serve needs of people and movement of goods, and help improve domestic and subregional trade, this project will also help improve the overall railway transport system in Bangladesh, and aims to reduce transport costs and improve logistics of strategic corridors, such as Dhaka-Chittagong link, for subregional trade.

  5. John Zahary:

    They have cut their rates to help attract volumes. All the railways are doing it, it's certainly helpful in getting volumes, but it's still tough out there.
