SCRAPER CAR ON
WEST RIVER LINE
Started Over Road Today to Clean Out
Ice Near Rails-Delayed by De-
railInent of Pillow Trucks.

The snowplow which has been at
work on the snowbound West River
railroad has been able to get through
to South Londonderry and return to
Brattleboro, but traffic will not be re-
sumed until the scraper car, which re
moves the snow and ice near the rails
has gone over the line, which probably
will not be before the end of this week
The plow and scraper car started
up over the line this forenoon, but had
gone only about three miles when the
front trucks of the plow jumped the
rails. 1t was necessary to return here
for the tool car. 1t was not expected
that the work Of replacing the trucks
would require much time
