road yards at F'ayette, near here, has

railroad
Because of the scarcity of steel a
temporary wooden trestle will be
erected at Morrell for the tracks of
both the Baltimore and Ohio and
Western Maryland.
Steel Viaduct
The plans call for steel viaduct,
but inability to secure the steel de-
iayed the work. One of the first acts
after the merging of the Baltimore
and Ohio and Western Maryland
roads in this section was to order
the completion of the railroad yards.
The yard system at Fayette is
about half completed The plans
called for the initial installation of
six tracks on land purchased from
the Herd estate Three tracks have
been completed and the grading is
done for the others. Nothing has yet
been done towards the erection of
roundhouse.
Officials of both the Baltimore and
Ohio and Western Maryland roads
inspected the merged roads yester-
day to determine how best to pro-
vide for economic operation. Yester-
day was the biggest day in the his
tory of the Connellsville division in
the matter of car movement. Five
thousand cars were moved over the
division. The previous high record
was a little over 4 1000 cars.
