Kennedy's funeral train carries brother to last journey
Ted Kennedy spoke softly at the Requiem Mass for his brother and the Kennedy family, as 2300 guests attended in the gray stoned cathedral. The 21 car special train bore the casket from Pennsylvania Station to New Brunswick, stopping for viewed vigils at each stop. A fatal collision near Elizabeth, New Jersey, killed two and injured six as spectators lined the tracks. One youth was severely burned atop a fright car after grabbing a high voltage line. The trip recalled Lincoln and Roosevelt last journeys, with local bands playing funeral dirges at each stop. Kennedy waved from the observation platform in Philadelphia.

Kennedy's Final Irony in a Nation in Turmoil
The piece notes Kennedy and McCarthy split the antiwar vote, suggesting a July push by McCarthy with Edward Kennedy could shift public opinion. Humphrey supporters eye Edward Kennedy as a potential running mate, while a Kennedy-McCartney ticket is unlikely due to Catholic representation. The assassination sparks national reflection and demand for new direction.
