Eastbound hump at Brunswick resumes after stoppage
The eastbound hump of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad at Brunswick reopened last night on an eight hour shift, with twenty one workers recalled at 8 oclock. Officials estimate about 100 workers may gain pay and the move is expected to last through winter, due to increased business and freight schedules. Westbound hump idle in summer may also resume. trains 37 and 48 between Frederick and Potomac Rocks canceled starting Sunday, with train 38 from Brunswick to Frederick and train 7 to Washington altered. The shift away from rail service reflects growing truck and motor route use for mail and milk shipments, with little impact on Frederick’s overall service.
