Train Won't Cheat In Race With Ponies
ROSEBURG Oregon Southern Pacific Railroad spokesman denies plans to speed up its train for a pony express race between Eugene and Roseburg this weekend. Vernal S. Quayle says the train will run on regular schedule after sponsors said fresh horses would be used every 75 miles. He notes the train departs Eugene at 12 01 a.m. and arrives Roseburg at 2 55 a.m. The race is organized by the Roseburg Chamber of Commerce and local residents to argue the train is slow, though railroad officials joke about oats and coffee for horses if the train costs money.
