C A Discontinues Trains Shifts Aboard Joliet Route
The Chicago and Alton requests permit to drop several trains on the Joliet corridor if approved by the Illinois Commerce Commission. Even with reductions, Joliet residents will not see major changes as other services on the routes remain similar. Train No. 15 from Chicago at 12 15 A M is a target. Santa Fe and Rock Island offer alternative late trains, while Train No. 171 operates Sunday nights with light traffic. The commission previously allowed discontinuing Trains Nos. 11 and 12, and Joliet officials note Joliet traffic would not be heavily affected given competing schedules and loads.
