AT a recent conference, held in Wash
ington, General Manager Spencer, of the
Southern Railway, and representatives
of the South Carolina Traffic Association,
it was proposed TO change the passenger
schedules so as to give Columbia a morn
ing train and an afternoon train to the
up.country. Such an arrangement would
work a hardship on the Walhalla travel
ing public, necessitating, as it would,
q corresponding change on the Blue Ridge
Railway. The morning train would be
moved up from 8. 40 a. m. to about 9 q. m.
and the afternoon train, now arriving at
$40 p. M, would arrive at about 10 p. m.
Such change as this would work a
hardship at this point and would be in
Railway, and it is hoped, therefore, that
the change will be abandoned and that
schedules remain as at present, which
cannot be improved upon. Furthermore
there is but little demand, il any, at this
point for a trip to Colum bia and return
in day. 1t is more desirable to spend
the night in Columbia for sight seeing
and rest, which, by the way, is likewise
to Columbia's interest.
