Ligonier Express To Start April 24th
The Ligonier Valley Railroad is to add a new train to its Sunday schedule, beginning April 24th, when new schedules will become effective, both on the P.R.R. and the L.V.R.R.
The new Sunday train will arrive in Latrobe from Ligonier at 12:46 p.m. and will depart at 1:00 p.m., making the regular stops both ways.

In previous years it never has been put on until the first of June. The Express will leave Pittsburgh each week day except Saturday at 4:07 p.m., leaving Latrobe at 5:15 and reaching Ligonier about 5:30. On Saturdays the Express will leave Pittsburgh at 12:20 p.m., arriving at Latrobe at 1:32 and
