Middletown Unionville Bus Line to Abandon Service
The Middletown Unionville bus line, in operation since last April, will cease operations after October due to rising costs and unprofitability. The system will be sold to an Alabama railroad and replaced by adjusted schedules on the regular passenger line. J. H. Smith, vice president, cited the need for Interstate Commerce Commission approval for a fare increase, which would cause delays of 60 to 90 days, prompting abandonment for the fall and winter seasons. The line carried five daily trips between Middletown and Unionville, with July the best month for passengers. The bus equipment will be sold to the Alabama railway system able to operate year-round.
