The train to run on that schedule today was annulled as were several other trains where Monday’s trains had been delayed. No. 33, which is the south bound HoosSer Limited, due here at 2 o’clock each day, was unable to get through to Indianapolis Monday. Today a train composed of the equipment of No.. 30 and the crew of No. 38, running as 33, at about 3 o’clock.
