 Once again the rumor is heard about the city that Bristol may have a new railroad station but those who have heard the same story in previous years are skeptical about the present one. However, Train master William H. Casey, who has charge of the line between Water bury and Hartford, when interview cd yesterday by the Herald repre- sentative, stated that plans for q new structure had been prepared and were being considered. Further than that nothing could be said at this time, according to the railroad official.
 Several years ago the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company were pctitionpd by q group of prominent business men to pro- Nld" suitable station facilities here. The answer at that time, however, was that the Tetrenchment policy of the road would make it impossible 10 conseder better accommodations but that al some later date, when the roads finances were in better shape, the matter would be recon sidered.
 The plans at that time, as il is re- called were 10 erect a new passeu ger station near the entrance to the public delivery yard on North Main street. Tho lower part of the build- Ing would contain stores while the waiting room and ticket offices would he reached by ascending snort incline. Westbound tracks would be reached by a short sub way running underneath both the east and westbound tracks.
 This plan would also necessitato relocating the freight house and possibly the entire public delivery yard.
