IA
One of the questions that presses ON Wilmington
for an immediate solution is that Of the location
of our railway depots. Shall they be dlngy little
structures, located here and there around town,
or shall the passenger traffic of all the roads cen
tering in this city meet at common depot, where
all unnecessary expense aud annoyance in trans
fer may be avoided In short, shall we have
Union Depot All experiences demonstrates the
value and convenience of such au arrangement.
The present passenger depot of the Phadol-
phia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad Is not
worthy of the city, or the great corporation to
which the building belongs. For this however,
our citizens have to thank .ee folly Of former
City Cornell, and not the iberality of the Rail-
| road Company. The Wilmington and Reading
Railroad Company Is without passenger station
OF Its own, aud II other arrangements DO not
speedily made, will have to build depot on lis
land in the western part of the city, at great
distance from the present station. The Whining
ton and Western Railroad will soon add to the
porplexity of the situation by demanding access
to the city. 1t may be compelled tn locate still
further out, in some still more iucon 7enien
place.
All this difficulty and Inconvenience may b.
avoided in but one way, and that Ia by the widen
ing OF Water street, SO 10 admit OF four or fv
tracks and the erection of a Union Depot. Thi
proposition was made long agobnt by an illibera
and unwise policy 1t was voted down. 1t mus
be done some time, and can never be done s.
chenply as now. Let the city and the corporation
interested join with hearty good fellowship il
the work, and we doubt not that IL may b
speedily done, and that tho companies will the
erect q common depot, which shall be ample fo
!, the accommodation OF their passenger hnsine;
and at the same time an ornniacnt to the city.
