All Aboard for Clarksburg
The Columbus Republican reports a directors meeting of the Columbus Greensburg and Richmond Traction Company in Indianapolis. An inspection of the proposed route is planned perhaps next week, with the line running from Columbus to Richmond via Greensburg and Connersville. The company aims to build the road, with outside backing likely, and the inspection may start from either end of the line. No new survey is planned as existing surveys are deemed sufficient.
