Tunnel South Mountain plan eyed as bold direct railroad link
Preliminary surveys for a South Mountain tunnel project by Western Maryland Railroad are finished. The route would connect Atlantic tides to the Pacific via a mountain tunnel near Jack's Mountain and Emmitsburg, with freight and passenger trains over a line paralleling the Monocacy to Howard County.

The story also notes Chamberlain's remedy advert and several real estate sale notices in Frederick.
