Abandon Transfer Ordered for Western Suburbs Transit
The Illinois Commerce Commission authorized Chicago Rapid Transit and Chicago and West Towns Railways to abandon the reduced fare transfer plan after six months. The experiment failed to attract sufficient cross system ridership, with daily two fare use rising only modestly. Commission chairman James M. Slattery noted lack of coordinated schedules and warned the agency could act again if future developments warrant.
