THE BLUEMoNT CAR SERVICE.
Why the Patrons of the Line Are
Complaining.

To the Editor Of The Star:
The complaint made in The Star Of
the 18th instant of the treatment accord
ed Its patrons by the Washington and
Old Dominion Railway Company on the
Bluemont branch describes what is we'll
known to all who have the misfortune to
be obliged to use that road in their travel
10 and fro between Bluenont and Wash
ingtor city.
The people who live at Vienna and
east of that point have 4 remedy in their
own hands, for they may use the Fair
fax line. which they are assured of
decent treatment and regular service But
to those who live west Of Vienna. and
must take the Bluemont line or walk.
their experience is, and has been for
years. a veritable nightmare.
No one can tell when train will ar
rive at a station on time, and the COM
pany might as well have no schedule at
all as TO have one so frequently dis
regarded. II is the only road known to
the writer which freight trains are
allowed to interfere with passenger traf-
fc. In the best OF weather the supply
Of current IL allowed to fall short, and
IL Is not an unusual thing to see cars
standing motionIess between stations or
crawling along at snaii-like pace In
deed. IL IL were not serious matter
TO its patrons. the conduct Of Its affairs
might be looked upon as a joke on rail-
road management.
When the Southern railway turned this
line over to its present operators 1t was
naturally assumed and expected that
there would be a marked Improvement in
the service given Consequently. the
patrons cheerfully suffered the annoy
aDces. delays and general discomfort en-
tailed by the Identification and change
In part TO new and shorter route to
Washington.
They even condoned the evasion and
violation Of the interstate commerce law
by which the company largely increased
the committing passenger rates charged
way, and that, too. without notice to it's
patrons on permission of the proper au-
thorities. The company did this by ar
ranging that all fares to and from the
city should end or begin at Thrifton, Va.
station two miles west Of the George
town terminus. thus forcing all commut-
Ing passengers entering and leaving
daily.
For the time being all these grievances
were overlooked by the patrons. for they
wished to give the new company time
and a chance to make good oven though
IT was to Be at their own Individual and
collective expense.
But several years have now elapsed.
and the company has had ample time and
experience In the running Of the road,
yet no Improvement can be seen In the
service gwen. and as the company has
shown, and continues TO show. such utter
indifference to the comfort, convenience
and welfare Of Its patrons some con-
certed action should be taken by the
latter to force 1t to accord them better
treatment, and properly fulfill ali its
corporate duties and obligations to them
and the travelling public.
