Travel Increasing To Somerset
The travel over the P. W. & S. is steadily increasing to Somerset. One evening last week we noticed that 24 people got on the train for Somerset at the L.V.R.R. station and as many as 50 sometimes make the trip. As the facilities of this new road are improved and tickets placed on sale at Pittsburgh and other points the travel will become greater. People can now leave Pittsburgh in the evening and get to Somerset in about four and one-half hours. This is something that could not be done before the opening of the P. W. & S. to travel. We are glad to see the good improvements going on.
