THE DALLAS POST, MONDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1963
Tearing up the Bowmans Creek
branch is only one small item in
general changes on the railroads
in the last fifty years. Many
other sidings and branches, some
entire railroads, have been torn
up and scrapped. And on the re-
maining trackage, traffic move-
ment is nothing like it was early
in the century.
_ From the Lehigh Valley station
in Wilkes - Barre, the Bowmans
Creek local trains making all
stops were matched by similar
local passenger trains up the river
to Sayre, and return. Main line
trains operated from New York to
Buffalo carrying mail, express,
baggage cars, coaches, sleepers,
diners, and club parlor, and obser-
vation cars. Through sleepers
were operated from Philadelphia
to Toronto and New York to
Chicago, via connecting trains, and
vice versa. Sleepers for New
York and Philadelphia were put
on at Wilkes-Barre. There were
also some through coaches to and
from other roads.
Three solid trains of special cars
carried nothing but milk. Mail
cars carried U. S. Railway mail
clerks sorting mail for points hun-
dreds of miles away. Locked
pouches were thrown off, picked
up, and interchanged between
trains enroute without stopping. A
government mail clerk supervised
handling mail between trains. Bag-
gage of passengers was only part
of the load in the baggage cars.
Salesmen moved large sample
trunks, and traveling theatrical
companies had plenty of scenery,
sometimes whole carloads.
There were many special trains.
Excursions were operated to Har-
veys Lake, New York, Niagara
Falls and other points. Three or
four, or more, trains were run
every time ' Cornell University
opened or closed, even for holi-
days. School teacher and student
specials on the spring trips to
Washington were annual affairs.
Troop trains were numerous in
wartime, and ran every once in a
while in peacetime.
From the same station, the
Delaware and Hudson ran trains
every hour or so to Scranton and
Carbondale, some through to Nine-
veh to connect for Albany and
Binghamton. The Pennsylvania
operated to Philadelphia and Pitts-
burgh, the latter train carrying
through sleepers. Across the street
the L&WYV had fast, frequent, elec-
tric-powered trains to Pittston and
Scranton, and nearby could ' be
seen the overhead trestle of the
Wilkes-Barre and Hazleton electric
railroad to Hazleton. From Kings-
ton the DL&W operated between

Northumberland and: Sc ran ton,
where connection was made with
service similar to the Lehigh Val-
ley. Across the. tracks: from. the
L.V., the Central Railroad of New
Jersey had similar service, includ-
ing a well known mail train, the
Bing & Phila, from Scracuse to
Philadelphia via NYC-DLW - CNJ-
Rdg.
From Public Square, electric
trolley lines spread out all over
Wyoming Valley and to outlying
points, including Harveys Lake.
Today there is not a single train
or passenger railroad or trolley
car, anywhere in Wyoming Valley.
Stations have been sold or torn
down, or converted to other uses,
or are in process of underging such
changes.
The freight business has also
changed, but is still going. Anthra-
cite coal, once the principal com-
medity moving locally, is now only
a small item. Steam. power got
bigger and bigger up to the 1930's,
since which time it has been
gradually supplanted by oil diesels,
usually run coupled with one
engine crew running up to tive of
them, compared to separate crews
on every engine in steam days.
Many tracks have heen removed,
some main tracks. Today a train
can be expected on any track, any-
time, anywhere, in either direction.
And trains are much longer than
formerly.
The types of cars formerly used
are still in use, but in all cases
bigger. And special cars have been
developed for certain commodities.
Tanks, formerly used mostly for
petroleum products, now carry
chemicals and gasses. Covered hop-
per cars handle in bulk a lot of
things formerly bagged or boxed,
such as cement, feed. flour, fertili-
zer, lime, salt, and chumicals, New
and larger flat cars now carry up
to three decks of automobiles, and
the new piggy-back cars carry two
big highway trailers. Perishable
coramodities are now handled in
mechanically operated refrigator
cars. Heavy machinery, etc, is
moved on heayy dutv equipment.
When the railroads hendled the
bulk of public commercial trans-
portation, passenger . and freight.
such things as commercial air
travel, long distance busses and
freight trailers, and big diameter
pipe lines were unknown, also the
St. Lawrence Seaway and some
other highly >
waterways. The great increase in
privately owned automobiles oper-
ated over paved roads caused the
fall, off of passenger business.

There was a sudden burst of song outside in the snow, and I
scrambled around’ in my handbag to find: the classic dollar-bill,
though it did look as if the Seventh Day Adventists were crowding
the mourners just a bit, catching me both at home and at the office;
but it was all in a good cause.
And then it turned out to be 'not
the Seventh Day Adventists after all. i
I opened the door, and there was Patty Davies and her children,
with Stanley holding the youngest safely above the swirling snow,
and the other children plunging about, knee-deep.
A small boy sang, Away in a Manger, and I could feel myself
melting and coming unstuck. How was he to know that seventeen
years ago this Christmas just before Barbara came home from the
hospital with the newborn twins, a small boy had been taught that
that same carol in order to surprise his mother, and that the sur-
prise had exceeded all expectations.
And a little later, there was the same carol over the long dis-
tance phone, a direct pipeline to Massachusetts, where six children
were lined up awaiting the signal, the next to the eldest just home
from the hospital.
Many people have asked me why I didn’t go away this Christmas.
I wouldn’t have missed Christmas here for the world, with the long-
distance calls coming in from all over the map, the final one at a ;
little past midnight, to announce safe arrival in Berea, Kentucky,
of the Christmas Country Dance School enthusiasts who had been
plugging steadily westward ever since early morning, changing shifts
at the wheel of the Volkswagen bus with monotonous ‘regularity.
; There was a call from brothers and sister in Charleston, S. C.,
and there was one from Lake Packanack. And a call from Chicago
made valiant efforts
stymied by the Christmas rush.

Caddie had what it took.
And a few little unexpected odds and ends, such as a driveway

windowsill td beat the cars.
He had heard me say that my old sun-
motor had been knocked off the table and broken, so he financed
another one in the hobby shop at the Dulles Airport.
Probably other airports and other hobby shops have sun-motors,
but this one is special, just because it comes from the brand-new
airport where all the notables from foreign lands arrived at the time
of the Kennedy funeral.
There’s no place quite like the Back Mountain to spend Christ-
mas.
This year we had a bonus of fresh-fallen snow, to make every-
thing look spic and span, and produce those inky shadows under
the trees after the snow stopped falling.
Sometimes there is a dismal rain at Christmas time, but you :
can always count on a cold snap at New Years. :
Whatever the weather outside, there are the apple-logs for the:
fireplace, and there's something about a storm that makes the live
ing room a cozy gathering place.
Nothing like a little contrast to point up the comforts at home.

American-South African Investment
Co. Ltd. Readers should remember,
however, that gold-mining stocks
will go down as well as up, in ac-
cordance with many different con-
ditions.
17. PROFITS. I forecast that
corporate profits will continue to
rise in 1964, though possibly at a
somewhat slower pace than re-
cently.
18. COPPER PRICES. Commodity
prices are dependent on two fac-
tors: Demand and supply. Take
copper: I believe demand will con-
tinue to increase during the elec-
trical era we are now in And,
since my visit to Africa, I feel the
supply of copper is almost unlimit-
ed. Hence I forecast little change
in price on balance in-1964.
19. OTHER BASIC RAW MATE-
RIALS. With some few exceptions,
the above applies generally to many
of the basic raw materials, includ-
ing iron and steel, and especially
aluminum. The present firming in
quotations will not carry much
further and could be subject to set- ff
backs later in the year.
20. SUGAR. Sugar prices, how-.
ever, will hold in a generally high
range all through 1964,
21. BUILDING — SUBURBIA. I
forecast that new building will con-
tinue around present levels rough
1964, with additional growth
“suburbia.” This applies to Sng
homes and to apartment houses,
which could easily be overbuilt as
the hotels and motels have been.

HAPPY LEAP-YEAR
FROM DALLAS POST
This is Leap-Year coming up,
with 366 days instead of the
more usual 365. And that happy
providence will place Christ-
mas and New Years for 1964,
safely within a weekend, when
travel and family plans may
more easily be carried out.
They will both fall on Friday,
and the staff of the Dallas Post
can say goodbye to the current
rigorous schedule.
If it’s divisible by four, it's
a Leap Year.
Happy Leap-Year to every-
body in the community, from
everybody at the Dallas Post.
