Plans indicate that National Park Service is going to utilize at least two vintage train engines, tenders and some cars.

"Later the Park Service may try to develop moving stock where vintage trains will be used to haul visitors over the route of the original railroad beds." He said, "The National Park Service has assured me that it plans to have a complete national monument unit available by 1969 to accommodate visitors to the pending Centennial celebration.

Without making an actual count, my impression is that most of those writing in are also opposed to medicare, and I cast my vote against the measure, although the House of Representatives passed it and sent it to the Senate, where it is now under consideration. 28 14 7 00 S1QQ .IOO RATES SERVICE service dy service dy day service $3.50 4.75 6.75 $M 00 RENTAL AUTOMATICS with W month Option To Buy per Ask About Our Low Terms NEW and REBUILT WATER HEATERS Call For Free Information On Installation Water Softener Salt 230 Archery Equipment Phone 2374251 West Main TREMONTON i Utah's Dairy Princess and Reddy Kilowatt urge you to DRUNK MORE of Utah's Honor jVlDlK...
