Postal Service In Lower Valley Severely Cut
The absence of a postal clerk on Baltimore and Ohio trains 52 and 51 between Strasburg Virginia and Harpers Ferry West Virginia cripples mail service. A July 17 restoration of two trains offers passenger relief but fails to restore clerk service or connect with the star route. Postal clerk service on Strasburg to Harpers Ferry has dropped 75 percent since 1920, risking continued delays and possible loss of service despite higher revenues for the Post Office.
