TRAIN SERVICE
IN DELTA COUNTY

In the past year greatly improved
train service for this county has
been furnished by the D. & r. G. W,
which is now part of the largest
railroad system in the United
States. The company during the
year put on a train running from
Somerset to Delta, to Grand Junction,
an all steel train, which there was
combined with the Denver bound
passenger So it is now possible to
get 'on a modern, up-to-date passen-
ger train in this county and not leave
the train until one has arrived in
Denver. Such service as this is
greatly appreciated. and is a decided
pleasure.
Two trains to Grand Junction each
day from Delta-one in the morning
and one in the afternoon-make bet
ter service for this county, also. Two
trains arrive daily from Grand juno
tion, also, in Delta. one going up the
North Fork branch to Somerset in
Montrose, and from there to Denver
in the morning. In this way It is
possible for Delta county people to go
to Grand Junction. enjoy a visit
and return home the same day. The
reverse is also true. People from
the north Fork Branch also find this
train service a great convenience as
they can spend a day in Delta be
tween trains
Another convenience which IS
greatly appreciated is that the trains
to and from Somerset stop at the
North Delta crossing to take on ol
let off passengers which saves
those who want to go to that end oI
Delta a long. walk up from the sta
/ tion.
1t has been the aim Of the railroad
7 to furnish all the cars necessary
for the transportation OF produce
whenever they were wanted. and dur
ing the past year the service in thi.
way has been exceptionally fine, bet
ter than for several years. The road
is constantly increasing the number
OF cars which can be used for pro
duce OF various kinds. and the A. r
n Co. and other railroads as vel
have co-operated with them so thai
. the road has been able TO give n,
b best possible service here as well as
I elsewhere during the past year. The
railroad has adopted Service" a,
Its motto apparently. and certainly
everything that can be done is being
accomplished to give the best two
the patrons Of the road.
