Texas Railroad Commission Extends Compliance Deadline
The Texas Railroad Commission in Austin extends to January 21 the time for Texas railroads to obey orders to ignore stateline connections and run trains from starting points on schedule. The move would affect Eastern mail and passengers at several stateline points with 8 to 10 hour delays if late connections occur. Railroads must keep a reserve train and crew at connecting points for delayed connections, with two roads threatening federal interference claiming the order is a breach of interstate commerce and unnecessary mail delay.
