PRINCESS BEGGAR "5 | | : 2 RK n ' tion Regarding Location of | Lehigh Valley Depot at the County Seat. Interest in the new. railroad bridge soon to be built across the! Susquehanna river at Towanda has caused many rumors to be circu- lated, among them the report that the contracts for masonry and super structure have been let, and that the new station will be above the present one. While it is the general impression that the bridge will be located above the present one, yet up to date no contracts been let for building the bridge, said today’s Review. Representatives of the real estate department of the Lehigh Valley are trying to secure options on more land between Wysox and Towanda, one purpose being to prepare for a four track road when the same is needed, and the other purpose being to secure an entirely new line from the Lanning farm to ‘the Coolbaugh cut south of the | present line, thus reducing the | curvature. | As to the location of the main ‘railroad station, officials of the | company are trying to work out “a {plan whereby the main station can Ibe located at the east end of the i | present wagon bridge, about 1 600 | the commer of Main and { from | Bridge streets. If the new station lis built at North Towanda it will | be 6,000 feet from the same corner Of the locations Towanda people prefer the one at East To {wanda It is expected that shortly |after February 1st the Lehigh offi- { have two |cials will give out plans for publica ition.
