Rail workers continue their daily activities. Officials shown usual rubber against Goodrich rubber by dropping two rubber balls. Hardness test carried out by official. Mobile electrical meter mounted on a baggage truck records the efficiency of Goodrich tires as it is driven along the platform. Officials cover their ears as steel wheels on baggage carriages rattle by them. When a Goodrich tire baggage truck and carriages drive past they are no longer deafened. An ‘electric ear’ records the difference in levels. A dynamometer registers the amount of energy required to pull steel wheels compared to Goodrich tires. Obstacles are placed beneath both steel and rubber tires to demonstrate the benefit of rubber tires. A cargo trolley loses its load when on steel wheels whereas the rubber wheeled cargo trolley copes with ease.
