Automobilists Ship Luggage By Car From New York
Automobilists no longer depend on railroads to carry baggage. They used an official AAA designated Packard owned truck to move about 3500 pounds of luggage from New York to the White Mountains and back. Two men alternated driving as the vehicle, fitted with solid tires and tarpaulin, delivered baggage to hotels and rechecked it next day. The enterprise aims to prove motor propelled vehicles can handle baggage without tire trouble.
