Suburban Railroad Timing Sparks Bristol Petition
At a Bristol Business Men's Association meeting a petition urged Rhode Island Company to shift Suburban line departure times to align with New York New Haven Hartford trains. General Manager A E Potter replied the present Bristol schedule maintains city commuters’ needs, with Bristol trains leaving 15 minutes after the hour and Providences arrival allowing access to 7, 8, and 9 a.m. business hours. He warned altering to 5 minutes past the hour would push Providence arrivals earlier, prompting objections from regular patrons relying on current service.
