B and O Surveyes Plan South Potomac Freight Route
Baltimors and Ohio civil engineers survey a route for a new freight track from Harper's Ferry to Point of Rocks on the south side of the Potomac to avoid costly north side cuts and tunnels. Grading is easier south of the river and a bridge at Harper’s Ferry over the Shenandoah would be cheap, while the Potomac crossing near Point of Rocks would be the costliest. The line is spurred by rising freight and passenger traffic, with Metropolitan branch freight up about 40 percent last year, and double tracking Gaithersburg to Washington Junction eyed for completion.
