Parkersburg B and O Train Abandons Service
In Ohio the B and O Railroad halted passenger trains numbers 31 and 32 between Parkersburg West Virginia and Cincinnati after a Common Pleas judge denied a request to block abandonment. The Public Utilities Commission sought to compel operation but the judge ruled the commission lacks authority. The case moves to a public hearing with Attorney General William Saxbe weighing in. The railroad had said the trains were no longer economical.
