TRAIN DEPOT AT RIVERSIDE
The passenger train between Riverside and Doe Run on the Missouri-Illinois Railroad will
be discontinued Saturday by order of the Public Service Commission. The last run will be
made by the north bound train Saturday afternoon. Conductor John Paul will take the
Leadwood freight run and Engineer Cresswell will go on the extra board as fireman and
engineer. Railroad employees do not appreciate the support given the commission by some
business concerns in having the train discontinued.
