Grade Crossing Dispute Between Railroads and Streetcars
The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad requests District Commissioners to restrain the East Washington Heights Traction Railway from building tracks at grade with the Shepherds Point branch. The railroad notes it has spent thousands to remove grade crossings and urges waiting for a substantial car volume before underground or overhead crossing construction. Commissioner Corings suggests neither line will justify such a crossing soon, and urges reevaluation if conditions change.
