Hours Friday.

Passenger traffic over the Weston
line Of the Monongahela Valley
Traction Company was tied up FOL
several hours Friday morning by q
landslide on the track at the historic

The line runs through deep cut
at that point and the water caused
from the melting snow and the rain
last night loosened the sides OF the
cut and large amount of stone and
mud came down on the track.
The first car out of Weston this
