Description:Excerpt from Minutes of Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers, Vol. 52: With Other Selected and Abstracted Papers; Session 1877-78 Part II At the end of 1856, Mr. Locke stated that the length of railways in France for which concessions had been granted was miles, of which miles had been opened. Now - or rather at the beginning of 1877 - the length of lines in France opened to the public was miles, besides which miles were in course of construction or had been authorised by concessions, making a total of miles, also considerably more than double what it was at the time of Mr. Locke's address. All this and much more has been done in engineering work since the time when Mr. Telford told our err-president, Mr. Harrison, that he had made a great mistake in choosing Civil Engineering for a profession, for there was nothing to do, and the sooner he turned his attention to something else the better.
