New Routing Abolishes Huntington Umatilla Stop
By virtue of recent railroad orders Hioth is to be abandoned as a rest station for passenger engineers and firemen between Huntington and Unmatiii. Passenger trains will run to Portland via Umatilla instead of the Coyote cutoff. Trains 4 6 and 19 are affected while freight stays on the cutoff. Engineers and firemen will switch engines at La Grande to Umatilla, altering social impact as only passenger trains are affected. The ruling took effect Monday.
