Old Gravity Engine to Run on Southern Line Reading. Pa., June 18.—The loco motive that for twenty-eight years has furnished part of the motive power that has drawn cars of the Mt. Penn Gravity Railway Company to the Tower has been sold to the Southern Iron and Equipment Com pany, of Atlanta. The engine weighs twenty-eight tons and is now slowly moving to Seventh and Chestnut streets where a Reading Railway Company wrecking crew will load it on ti cav. A special track has been laid from Gravity station to Perkio men avenue. It will travel in Perkio men avenue to Chestnut and down Chestnut to Seventh on duplicate skids on which rails are laid. In the twenty-eight years of its usefulness the engine hauled many thousands of people to the Tower and thereby enabled them to see the beauty of Berks Valley and stream that may be observed from that height. When the engine was first brought to Reading the problem of how to get it from the Philadelphia and Reading tracks to the Gravity station was a perplexing one. It was finally solved by attaching a team of about twenty hor&es to it and they slowly and carefully pulled it to the Gravity station. Incidentally a number of iron culvert tops were demolished. All Gravity cars will now be run by electricity. Approximately 138,000 gallons of oil were destroyed by fire following a derailment on the Lehigh Valley Railroad at Bear Creek Junction, near Wilkes-Barre. Twenty-three cars were involved and the tracks were flooded with oil. Officials are of the opinion that sparks from the brakes fired the fluid. No one was injured. Merging of Philadelphia's Railroad ticket offices will be an established fact July 1. On that date the down town passenger offices of the Penn sylvania, Reading and Baltimore and Ohio lines will be housed under one room in accordance with the pro gram announced by Director General McAdoo several months ago.
