OUTCALT DEPOT
TO Be MOVED
Report West %Spotswood Sta.
ton to be Abolished.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

OENNANf
Spotwood, Nov. 23.-It is report
ed here that the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company plans to remove the
portable station at Outcalt, Of West
Spotswood," and suspend the use OF
that name on it's timetables and rail-
road tickets. In other words, it is
planned to literally wipe Outcalt off
the railroad map. Although the re-
port is unconfirmed, it is acknowl-
edged to be based on good grounds,
inasmuch as the railroad business
transacted at Outcalt is very small.
At the present time, the station is
closed to the public, although a
large platform affords plenty of
waiting room for the few passengers
who get on or off a train at that
point during the year At the heigh-
tn of Physical Culture City-the
home of Bernarr McFadden-five
years ago, Outcalt station was n
of the busiest point along the old
Camden-Amboy line, now called the
Trenton Division.
The station was moved to Out
calf from a seashore resort, and was
so erected here that it can be taken
down and removed at any time. 1t
the station is removed, any person
wishing to visit historic "P. c." city
will be forced to get off the trains
at Spotswood or Helmetta and walk
at least a mile to their visiting place.
