From the Hood River Glacier
The new railway automobile of the
Mount Hood Rail Road Co., equipped
with flanged wheels and with a seating
capacity for 30 passengers, was sent
on its first trial run from this city to
Parkdale Wednesday o f last week.
The following men were the guests of
Ashley Wilson, superintendent o f the
line, on the trial trip : Henry Serr, C.
H. Vaughan,J . B. Canfield and E. O.
Blanchar, all of this city ; and L. Lit-
tlepage. a representative o f the White
Company,
makers of the car, and
Frank Sheppard, o f Portland.
It ia proposed by the valley rail line
to inaugurate a schedule with the huge
gasoline driven machine that will not
only accommodate local citizens and
traveling men desiring to vieit in the
Upper Valley, but that will enable the
upper country ranchers to shgp in Hood
River and return home the same day.
The steam train o f the line, mixed
passenger and freight,m akes one round
trip daily from Hood River to Park-
dale.
Another trial trip was made Sunday,
when Mr. Wilson had aa bis guests Mr.
and Mrs. C. A. Bell. Mr. Wilson's
w ife and daughter and Miaa Clara Par-
tias alto made the trip to Parkdale.
