A motor car for use on the Onaga
branch of the Union Pacific is being
made in the railroad shops at Omaha.
1t has been predicted for some time
the the motor-car service would De
| installed on the branch, and the news
from Omaha gives much strength to
the report.
| It it not known what type the motor
will be but it is thought it will be OF
| the latest.
The need for better service on the
road has been felt ever since II was
opened to Marysville. The mixed ac-
| commodation train was rarely on time
and generally several hours behind the
schedule on account of rush of bust
ness. Lately, however, extra trains
have been added to relieve the conges-
ton and the service has been some
what improved. Nevertheless 1t is a
long run for passengers. This cannot
be shortened when freight is pelne
pulled and switched at the stations. So
the coming of the motor car is belng
looked forward to as great improve
ment.
