Locomotive Runs On New Rail Line Puffing and snorting of a heavy locomotive and gravel train initiated the new railroad re-located right-of_ way Saturday morning, as Orino, Birkemeler A Saremal went into mass ballast spreading opera lions along the new line. Previously all that has traveled the new track has been the freak truck and small gravel car used for initial ballast spreading by the con tractors and at one time a steam- powered railroad crane, but Satur day morning saw the first real train on the rails. W ith a train of 20 gravel ears bearing ballast for the lin«- between Lancaster cut and the tunnvi, the heavy locomotive moved slowly along the line. There was no tooting of w histles or waving of flags. Just another day in the work-week for the contractors. Not even a long-tail-coated oeiega- tion of officials with a gold spike to drive were on hand. Just another load of ballast to be dumped. The line will soon be complete to the Locks junction.
