Consideration also is being given to
the establishment of a freight delivery

were formulated for the construction
Of an industrial terminal in the area
between Georgia avenue and the rail-
road tracks, when the section was or-s

and permission granted to run certain
railroad sidings across certain streets.
The railroad development here also
was brought about to some extent by
the controversy between the town of
Takoma Park and the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad over the use of the
North Takoma siding AUDITING on pub

the unloading Of freight. The efforts
OF the town to GUST the railroad from
the park lands was vigorously contested
