IL. a q. Improycm

The work OF Strengthening the track and
reducing the grade at Tabs Station on the
second division OF the Baltimore 4 Ohio
railroad was recently con pleted, and the
first train to Use the new line was No. |, the
New York and St. Louis flyer. A heavy
grade and tree bad curves have been elm
mated by this work. A mile east, at Meyers
Hole, similar improvement has also been
completed after months of work. Several
reverse curves and nasty and dangerous
dip are done away with at this point. Near
Myers Hole, at Tablers, the alignment of the
track is being materially changed, and, as in
the other two Improvements, bad grades
and sharp, annoying curves are being re-
moved. This part OF the work will be done
in sixty days and then series of very dan.
sstous places will have been entirely re
moved. This work in its entirety means the
hauling of several additional cars in each
freight train, besides reducing the danger
Of derailments to almost nothing. The sec
urd division, running from Cumberland to
Brunswick, will soon be in first con
dition and more cheaply operated than
ever.
