Show LAST RAILROAD STORY. , San Pedro Trains to Run Into Ogden Union Depot. The latest railroad story Is to tho effect that when a regular passenger and freight ach?d-ulo ach?d-ulo Is put Into effect on tho San Pedro, loa Angeles fc Salt I-nkc rnllroad all trains will run Into and depart from tho Union depol at Ogden. There Is nothing unreasonable In the story. It rueanx nothing greater than a traffic agreement covering the thlrty-plx miles between be-tween Ogden nnd Salt Lnke The saving In (twitching charges and costs of terminal handling hand-ling Is urged as tho ronnon for the agreement. In thin samo connection It was stated here today by prominent authority that the remodeling remod-eling ajid tho rebulldlnc of Ogden yard nnd tho construction of tho Layton cut-off nre nil Inter-related with the completion nnd the opening to traffic of the Salt Lake Route. Tho Impulsion of the Salt Lake Rout ns an oleinont In tho Ogdon gateway question has given rise to new problems. Tho present entry" of the Oregon Short Lino destroys tho value of the ynrd grounds for trackage purKfes. With tho lncra(od number of trains confio-tiuent confio-tiuent on tho San Pedro running Into Osden, this difficulty would he Increased. Tho only eacapo Is to build tho Iayton cut-off. |
