New Kansas City Route Aims At Through Business To Atlantic
The Wall Street News notes a new line from Kansas City through Springfield and Memphis to East Tennessee and points to Baltimore for finalizing arrangements. Kansas City and Norfolk, Va., are the main termini, with a possible rate to Liverpool via the route. Rail distances show Norfolk only 86 miles farther than New York by shortest paths, suggesting the line could handle export traffic and threaten westbound flows to the seaboard centers.
