11 YEARS FAIL TO GET TOWN NEWSTATION Bremen Project Again Up to Commission After Long History. BY BEN STERN Eleven years ago the Indiana Public Service Commission ordered the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad to build anew railroad station at Bremen, Marshall County. Bremen is still without its station. . The question again is before the commission, this time brought by the railroad itself not by the original petitioners, the Business Men’s Association of Bremen. The vicissitudes of Bremen’s railread station are entwined with the commission career of John W. McCardle, commissioner since May 1, J 917. The new petition sets forth the history of the rail station as follows: Time Extended 1 “That on Dec. 28, 1917. an order /was entered by the public service commission ordering the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad to construct a station in the town of Bremen by October, 1918. “April 13, 1918, another was entered extending the time to Oct. 1, £1919. Sept. 22, 1918. another order was entered extending the time to Oct. 1, 1920.” The September, 1919, order was, according to McCardle, presumably ou. ,'d by E. I. Lewis, at that time chairman of the 'commission. Sept. 2, 1920, me time was extended to Oct. 1, 1921. This order was written by McCardle and the action taken “because of financial conditions.” June 10, 1925, the time was extended to Oct. 1, 1922. McCardle was then chairman and signed the order. May 27, 1922, the railroad company asked further extension. Extension Denied Tliis time the commission deftied further extension. McCardle was commission chairman at that time. The railroad’s petition continues to cite: Following the denial, “application |was made for a rehearing. “That such action resulted in an ‘informal’ conference with the then chairman of the Public Service Commission (McCardle), on Oct. 16, 1922, at which conference the railroad was advised that the commission would not order anything done at that time, and that no formal request need be made for a further extension, for which reason the railroad did not proceed to construct the station, and has not up to this time so proceeded.” McCardle says that such an “informal” conference took place and he “presumably” did make that statement. Hope for Station Gone “But,” said Commissioner McCardle, “representatives of the city of Bremen were at the informal conference when he advised the matter be dropped. Statistics attached to the petition show that in 1917 when the order was made to build the station, “an average of forty trains passed through Bremen daily. There was an average daily sale of forty-eight passenger tickets. Today only one passenger train each way stops regularly. The freight handling requires no particular facilities in the way of a Station building. So perishes Bremen’s dream of a pew station.
