Is there anything that we could do that would induce the night train on the iAr line to run down the Depot. There is a good deal of travel from tin's place that would go over that road il the train would come down, but as it is it is very ineonvieant, the junction is inside of a field, so that teams can not get into it, and travelers that have, heavy baguge can not get it to the junction.

All that wants to take that train are cupelled to Walk about a mile and wait in the cold as there is no way to make a fire, and when winter sets in this Will be a disagreable thing to do.
