Amtrak,
By TOM McCANN
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Rail passengers in the Philadelphia-
Pittsburgh corridor will have a better
opportunity to travel between the two
cities with the Sunday inauguration of a
new daylight train jointly sponsored by
Amtrak and the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
The new train, named the “Penn
sylvanian,” will provide' increased
service on the Amtrak/Conrail main line
via Harrisburg, including stops at
Lewistown, Huntingdon, Tyrone ■ arid.
Altoona. These stops will give people in
Centre Region more access to the
two cities.
Other stops scheduled for the train are
Paoli, Lancaster, Harrisburg, John
stown, Latrobe and Greensburg.
Old Main's
By IRIS NAAIt
Daily Collegian Staff Writer
Though the chimes of the University’s
Old Main ring faithfully every fifteen
minutes, rumors still abound as to how
sound is actually made.
Some of the theories are logical, while
others are more humorous. Two
suggestions are that the bells are ac
tually a tape recording of Big Ben in
England, or even that a person is
stationed in the Old Main tower to
♦ dutifully ring the bells at the proper
times.
Actually, the chimes are part of an
intimate mechanism tucked away in 408
Old Main.

“This new train will enable Amtrak to
provide much-needed additional train
service to western Pennsylvania,”
Amtrak President Alan Boyd said.
The new service will fill a void caused
by the discontinuance last Oct. 1 of the
“National Limited,” a New York-
Kansas City train which served the same
cities. Service along the route is also
provided by the overnight “Broadway
Limited” from New York /and
.Washington to Chicago.
The new train is scheduled to leave
Philadelphia daily at 9 a.m., arriving in
Pittsburgh at 4:25 p.m. Eastbound, the
train will leave Pittsburgh at 12:45 p.m.,
arriving in Philadelphia at 8:15 p.m.
Amtrak spokesperson Debbie. Mar

Physical Plant in Old Main, has been in
charge of ringing the bells from noon to
12:15 p.m. each day to remind the
University of the hostages in Iran.
“This is such a mystery to people,”
said Rohrbach, in regard to the chimes
of Old Main. Rohrbach said the
mechanism works the same as a mantle
clock.
A 12-hour clock moves every minute
and sets off a trip mechanism, he said.
Then a signal is sent through wires to set
off the four Westminster chimes every
fifteen minutes and the subsequent gong
sound each hour. The sound then passes
through an amplifier to reach the whole
campus, Rohrbach said.
The entire system and chimes are
controlled through a Simplex system at

Northeast Corridor trains in
Philadelphia. She added that the train
will use modern Budd-built “Amfleet”
equipment, offering both coach and
coach-snack bar service.
Marciniak says a special one-way fare
will be offered on the “Pennsylvanian”
from April 27 to June 30, with discounts
of up to 40 percent, giving riders an
opportunity to get acquainted with the
new service at a reducedjrate. Full fares
would be in effect after that date.
The new train is sponsored by Amtrak
and PennDOT under section 403-B of the
National Rail Passenger Service Act of
1970. Under this agreement the state
pays a portion of the operating costs of
the service. The state’s estimated costs
for the first year are $580,000.
For the first year of operation, the
state will pay 20 percent of the costs,
the West Campus Power Plant, he said.
The plant has controls for time
correction, and the system corrects
itself every day at noon to insure the
chimes’accuracy.
Rohrbach, a former University
student, said the Old Main bells run with
far less problems now then in the past.
“I remember when I was in school,
when the chimes, would ring 16 or 20
times,” he said. He said that a new
control, tied in with Simplex, was in
stalled in 1973. This is the same control
that operates University clocks and
turns on water pumps and street lights.
The Old Main system works fine,
Rohrbach said, except for some in
stances when the bell rings more times
that it should. He said the collar that the
with Amtrak paying the remaining 80
percent. For the second year, the ratio
will be 35-65 in favor of the state, then for
the third year and afterwards the fun
ding will be split 50-50.
Pennsylvania joins Illinois, California,
Michigan and Missouri among states
now providing subsidies for intercity rail
passenger service.
Marciniak said other services planned
by Amtrak and PennDOT for the state
are a daily Altoona-Pittsburgh train and
a weekend service between Hoboken,
N.J., and Scranton.
Boyd praised the state’s efforts to
sponsor the new service.
“I personally think that this type of
state commitment to public tran
sportation will be an increased factor in
the nation’s response to our energy and
transportation needs,” he said.
bell plunger fits into heats and expands,
and that the plunger can stick. The
chimes will not ring until the plunger is
unstuck, usually with the aid of a
teaspoon, he said. .
Rohrbach said he usually is in charge
of the bells that ring each day from noon
to 12:15 p.m., as a reminder of the
American hostages in Iran..
Rohrbach was contacted by his family
pastor, whose brother is a hostage, to
help get the bell-ringing project un
derway. Since December, the chimes
have been rung at noon every day by
Rohrbach or one of several other
assistants.
“We intend on doing it until the
hostages are back in the United States,”
he said.
