CHANGE OF ROUTE.
The B. & o. to Avoid the
Grade at Mt. Airy-May
Run Through This City
Survey Now Being Made.

1t seems certain that Frederick
will in the near future be on the
main line of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, which offer it re-
jected many years ago to its own
manifest detriment.
For mum Der of years the COM
pany have had in view plan to
change the route around Mt.
Airy, Carroll County, in order to
avoid the heavy grade at that
point. 1t was rumored that a
tunnel would be dug under the
hill, costing over one million dol
lars, but this plan was hardly
feasible. When the new manage
ment of the road assumed charge.
with unlimited backing, this mat
ter came up for consideration,
with the result so far that a survey
is now being made by a corps of
civil engineers who started from
Frederick on Wednesday to map
out route from the other side Of
Mt. Airy either through or near
this city to a convenient point on
the line this side of Point of
Rocks. This change will involve
the expenditure of a great sum of
money, but the saving in fuel and
wear and tear on machinery will
justify the outlay.
1t will not be known until the
survey is completed whether or
not this city will be on the main
line. AS now projected the road
will pass within half a mile of us.
1T that near why not run the road
through the outskirts! Surely
the business annually done would
seem to Justify such a course
AS it is now there is considerable
expense transferring and chang
ing engines at Frederick June
ion. where if the road ran by the
city this would be saved, as the
regular train would handle all
without troublesome delays and
changes.
Frederick would also be suit
able location for repair shops,
auxiliary freight yards, and in
return would more literally pat
rOnise the road. There would be
considerable time saved in a pas
Senger service to Baltimore by
avoiding the curves and grades
between here and Mt. Airy.
Much time is always lost and the
trip could be made on the new
line i'll less than two hours.
All these things, and many
others, taken + into consideration
prove how desirable it is that the
road should not pass Frederick
by and our business men should
see that every inducement is
made and all influence possible
brought to bear on the company
to that effect.
