SP to Keep Brownsville Branch Line The Southern Pacific Co. has notified the City of Springfield it Has no intention of abandon ing its Brownsville Branch line, City Mgr. Frank Smiley said Monday. Smiley said he has received letter to this effect from A. W. Kilborn, SP division super intendent in Portland. The company is expected to start construction soon of a 75 foot wooden trestle over the new Q Street ditch. A smaller trestle was torn out a year ago when the ditch was enlarged. . For a number of months, the city has been hopeful the com pany might abandon the branch line because the SP had taken no action to replace the old trestle. The SP's decision not to aban don the Brownsville line affects the State Highway Dcpt's plans for building a new Q Street overpass at the proposed Sec ond and Third Street couplet in Springfield. The overpass will now have to be more expensive, accord ing to city officials, because of the railroad which runs adja cent to the planned couplet. Another effect of the SP's de cision involves Lane County's proposal to take over the right-of-way of a section of the line (if abandoned) so the Second Third Street couplet could be extended northward toward Co burg. 11 the line were abandoned, the couplet could be extended northward from Q Street along the railroad right-of-way to link with the county's Belt Line Iioad, officials said.
