Many Objections To Removing Car
Shops
Much surprise was created here last
week when it was learned that the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company con-
templates the abandonment of the 10
cal car shops and the transfer of the
day and night forces to the Harring-
ton, Clayton and Delmar shops; the
new order to become effective about
January 18th, leaving only four men
here, two pump men and two attend
ants at the coal chute.
There is much opposition to the
company carrying out the above or
ders in this town and surrounding
county and many strong points will be
brought out yet that may cause the
company to reconsider the order and
leave the shops remain here.
