Don't tell me that there is already a bus handling this traffic. Louis west, and on Chief's route from LaPlata west. Ridership will be positively stratospherious, well beyond the dreams of Oklahomans. Transfer time at Newton won't be perfect just as it wasn't before Oct. 1979. Nevertheless thousands of people transfered at Newton from the west to the south and vice versa before that time.
Newton station is large and has numerous comfortable seats.
A car of Express from Chicago to Oklahoma City or wherever. A Kansas City to Los Angeles Sleeping Car which can be occupied at 945pm KCUS to go to Los Angeles via Abilene and Midland. The Ranger should go to San Antonio. But I'm more realistic than those of 'dream train' fame. Besides, the Joint Line Denver-Pueblo is jammed.
