Future of the D L N Foretells $1 0% Spend on Upgrades
A Detroit and Lima Northern syndicate will spend about 1 0 percent to improve the line and equipment after last week's foreclosure sale. The road, 341 miles from Southern Ohio coal fields to Detroit, will be consolidated with Ohio Southern while Samuel Hunt, late Toledo St. Louis Western receiver, assumes control. Found rumors of consolidation with the Toledo St. Louis Western proved unfounded though close alliance is certain. Six additional passenger trains raise service toward hourly runs to rival the Big Four electric line. commutation tickets offer two persons return use within 30 days. The Interurban has drawn away local Big Four business, with sales dropping from 83,000 to 5,000 monthly.
