Two Cent Fare Changes Stir Parkersburg Rail Debate
Parkersburg faces complex effects from Ohio two cent per mile fare law set to take effect March 10. Local agents will apply Ohio tariffs while interstate traffic remains at three cent rates east of Parkersburg. Ohio points will see reduced fares, but Parkersburg will sell only Ohio to Ohio tickets with a bridge toll. Excursion travel to Cincinnati and other Ohio points may be curtailed if railroads deny discounts.
