1t has been decided, in regard to the
electric railroad, to at once have survey
made of direct line from Bamberg to
Ehrhardt and secure right of way for the
proposed route. This work will be done
at once. It seems somewhat likely now
that the road will be operated by steam
and will run from Ehrhardt to Bamberg
and on to connect with the Atlantic
Coast Line few miles above town. This
will give us an admirable connection, and
it is to be hoped the road will be built.
The matter of whether it will be steam
or electric road has not been definitely
decided yet.
