Here repair work is slowed greatly. Contrary to popular belief, the Fort Wayne toil lines of the local company do not follow U.S. 27, although some rural lines do for quite a distance, but are strung along the river road through Poe.

Mr Ehinger said that some hope had been held service on that toll line could be restored within 10 days, but that adverse weather may delay the date.
