At the same meeting of the Council, a
communication was received from H. D. Whitcomb, Superintendent of the
Virginia Central Railroad, asking
permission to use the temporary track on Broad street
to haul forty freight cars and five passenger cars from the
Richmond, Fredericksburg
& Potomac Railroad Depot to the Central
road. The freight cars are to be used exclusively in hauling produce
to Richmond. The Superintendent wished to connect the track crossing the streets
on condition that the same be taken away as soon as the cars are
removed. Permission was granted. |
