Before the war, Indianapolis Railways led the rest of the nation in modern, city-wide transportation equipment and service. We want to doit again. Even though we had plenty of problems during the war, we were determined to do the best we could during the emergency. When some service standards were forced down, we kept planning all the harder for the day when we could again make our city’s transportation system the envy of big cities all over the country. Right now, scores of our vehicles need to be replaced with improved post-war equipment. We've already received 15 diesel buses. Thirty more diesels plus 15 trackless trolleys and 10 gasoline

buses are on order. Many more will need to be orderéd as soon as manufacturers can provide them. Present plans call for an over-all expenditure of not less than $3,500,000 in the next three years to make replacements and additions to our
facilities.
We want to furnish good transportation at uniform rates for all our customers, whether they use buses, street cars or trackless trolleys. We hope to do this with present rates. The existing fares (the token fare is lower than that charged by any comparable operation) are necessary to enable the company to keep its service and system as modern as our customers wish ,and deserve.

Our aim is always to provide A-1 transportation
