Sap to Run Direct Train Service to Camp Funston
The Sap will inaugurate through passenger service between San Antonio and Camp Funston at Leon Springs this Saturday. A train will depart Camp Funston at 1 30 PM, reach San Antonio at 2 40 PM, then leave San Antonio at 5 30 PM and arrive at Camp Funston at 6 49 PM. A government spur now connects the camp to the main line, enabling direct troop traffic. If demand exists, trains may run Saturdays Sundays and possibly midweek.
