L.V.R.R. Buys Gasoline Coach
Another gasoline coach, larger and more powerful than the one now in use, has been purchased by the Ligonier Valley Railroad from the St. Louis Southwestern Railroad.
It arrived at Ligonier from St. Louis today and was unloaded at Ligonier. The company plans to retain both the old coach and the one just acquired, so as to have one always in readiness should trouble develop with the other.
The coach that arrived today has six cylinders and is capable of traveling 60 miles an hour. The other one has four cylinders. The coach just obtained is a model six years later than the other one.
