Huron MP.
sees move
to railroad
R. E. McKinley, MPlor Huron
was at Huron County Council's
April session last Thursday and
held out strong hopes for restor-
ation of pass,enger train service
in the area.
The member endorsed coun-
cil's action in concurring with a
resolution from Robert S.0 herry,
Palmerston, who is petitioning
the Hon. Jean Marchand, Minis-
ter of Transport, to act "decis-
ively and immediately" in this
regard.
"I .see a trend coming back,"
he observed, "but I think we
should get busy at it."
In his submission, Cherry
wrote, "I believe that the CNR
is certainly morally, if not leg-
ally, obligated to provide rail
passenger service in this area
until no need for this service
exists at' all. believe that
rail passenger service through-
out our area would greatly assist
in reducing highway air. pollut-
' ion, along with reducing traffic
accidents, increasing the safety
factor and providing much needed
employment of men in main-
taining track, running trains,
etc."
"In conclusion, " wrote
Cherry, "a great many citizens
in our area need arid desire rail
passenger service, the Province
of Ontario has affirmed that this
service is necessary and indeed
opposed the elimination of the
railiners. Why can't we have it?"
Mr. McKinley said that a ,ifew
more menibers are taking up the
cry" for the return of rail pass-
enger service to the area. He
said that while bus routes would
have to be co-ordinated with
train schedules and times Would
have to be much more convenient
kr travellers, the return of rail
passenger service was coming
and he was 'going td make an
election issue of it if it was
not returned before then.
"The best way for them to
avoid that is to put the service
here," he warned.
He said the train passenger
Service had been discontinued
because it was believed bus
service was adequate.' "Not
so," said McKinley who believes
that if the rail companies had
to bg subsidized up to 80 percent
the SerVice,should be restored to
the rstrid.
