Freight demand prompts extra run and depot question
Local freight traffic on the South Bend and Northern Indiana line has risen to near capacity. Management considers adding another freight run as gas transportation strains current capacity. A joint passenger freight depot at the corner of Marion and Second streets is being planned but may be too small. The freight building is full to the roof, with shipments left outside. Construction of a new building will begin soon as plans are finalized.
