Stop-Over Tickets End Georgia Mileage Battle
After seven years a Georgia railroad commission agreement enables stop over tickets on all lines. Railroads will restore former interchangeable mileage within ten days, with stop over tickets on sale by June 1. The plan lets travelers pause at intermediate points for five days without renewing tickets, subject to standard baggage and check regulations. Key figures include R.A. Broyles and H D Shackelford for traveling associations and officials from Georgia carriers.
