Redstone Railroad Has
Carried One Passenger
Huntsville, Ala.-HJPD-There
is a railroad that has carried
only one passenger in its near
ly 19 years of existence and
officials are glad he didn't
come back for a second ride.
The railroad, one of the
slowest lines in the nation, is
at Redstone Arsenal here,
where a major effort is under
way to. develop a space ve
hicle. The space vehicle is the
prime project of the National
Aeronauctics and Space Ad
ministration's Marshall Space
Flight Center which shares
th Arsenal with the Army
Ordnance Missile Command.
The Army's Redstone Rail
road, a line that even stops
for auto traffic, includes five
diesel electric locomotives, 36
boxcars, 23 coal cars, two flat
cars, one tank car and a motor
car for railway maintenance
crews.
82 Miles
The railroad operates over
82 miles of track, but logged
more 90,000 miles last year

Madrid Store
Owners Returning
To Barter System
Madrid -OIPD To heck with
money, a merchant "said the
other day. This is the thought
of an increasing number of
people in Spain, a land where
money is scarce.
Something else is taking its
place. Something not really
new, in fact old as time. Its
name is barter.
As the old joke goes, rich
or poor, its nice fo have
money.
But in a land which suf
fers from the acute lack of
this convenience, the idea of
barter is again raising its use
ful head.
Tailored Shirts
Now the pharmacist down
the street has decided to deal
with the shirt maker up the
street. In return for medi
cines and prescriptions filled,
he will have hand tailored
shirts.
An advertising agency gets
paid for its ads with a tele
vision set, a stove, a Persian
rug, or a dozen pairs of stock
ings for one of the girls in
the office.
More than 300 merchants
along Serrano, one of Madrid's
main shopping streets, have
decided to work out a barter
arrangement among them
selves. The barter deal will
be among the stores and not
for the general public.
. Now one salesgirl from a
clothing store, for example,
will be able to outfit herself,
to a certain extent at the
rest of the stores belonging
to the barter association.
Whether it is slips or
salami, the merchants say
they will be able to live better
now without an increase in
the amount in their pay en
velopes. Barter coupons, the mer
chants say, will be issued and
all in all, the membership in
the entire country will num
ber about 4,000.
The merchants are so en
thusiastic about the idea, they
believe their barter system
will spread to merchants all
over Europe, and then even
tually to the public.
Never Died
The barter system in Spain
never really died out, just be
came more obscure from lack
of practice as people preferred
to exchange money rather
than goods.
In the Spanish town of Seo
de Urgel, which sits on the
border between Spain and
Andorra, the bishop still re-
ceives part of his salary , in
barter.
The arrangement dates back
to a treaty made in 1278 when
Andorra was run by two
chiefs of state, one, the head
of Prance and the other the
bishop of Seo de Urgel.
The salary of the two chiefs
is paid by the citizens of An
dorra and amounts to 960
francs, the same salary paid
in 1278. The French chief-of-state
at that time was not a
very trusting soul and de-
hauline 380.000 tons nf carirn.
Cargo has ranged from poison
gas to 500 pound bombs to
one passenger.
At an instnllntinn uhlth

The Army began operating
the railroad in 1942 when
this arsenal was a minor mili
tary Installation engaged in
the manufacture of bullets
and poison gas. long before a
missle ever took shape in Vf
country.
The trains do not use fire
men and there isn't a caboose
on the line. Commercial rail
roads bring shipments to two
yards, where distribution of
in-bound cars Is made to the
various departments by the
Redstone Railroad. The line
also hauls coal from barges
which dock on the Tennessee
River which borders the arsenal.
