-M' gaigfoacfd Wcfe E eww Fifty-five engines and 3500 railroad cars pass through Bellevue daily, Freddy Freight boasted to Egbert. And about one-fourth of the fathers of our class members work for the Nickel Plate Railroad, added Tom Gruss. Well, eleven of us senior boys work for the railroad ourselves! Tony DeBlase spoke up. All agreed that while Bellevue has many thriving industries, the Nickel Plate Railroad is one of the most important. The offices of the general superintendent of the entire railroad recently moved here into the newly- erected office building. Yards, roundhouse, and shops are extensive, since two divisions of the road meet here. ln addition, through Bellevue also go branches of the New York Central, Pennsylvania, and Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroads. Egbert will feel at home during his visit in Bellevue!
