Time card change eyed for Great Rock Island line
The Griswold American reports a new time card taking effect Sunday on the Rock Island system with a rumor of a morning Griswold Atlantic train. If true, Atlantic would reach Griswold around 10 30 AM and return before noon, affecting post office hours from 12 26 to 1 30 PM. Local offices say such a change is unlikely because mail trains could be missed. The notice also mentions church and school hours in Griswold and cites unrelated ads for Hollister’s tonic.
