Motorman and Conductor Harbor Quiet Tension After Three Years
The St Louis Republic reports on Willan Walsh the conductor and Benjamin Lindaay the motorman who operate a single car on the Suburban railway along Unton avenue to Werest park. For three years they have worked closely yet spoken no word to each other a coolness said to be deliberate and a matter of pride.
