Frailer, Chief Classification Yards for North Platte Plans ore being made to make North Plntte a clnsaification stntion, to switch all tho through freight hero and make up train loads that will go straight through to tho coast by fast freight. Much of this switching is now being done at Grand Island, but with the change it would all ho done hero and would require an extra loice 01 men m tho local yards. If this is done it will mean much moro work in the local yards. It is being done already to some extent. Changes are being made as rapidly as possible in the Union Pacific yards that will leave tho Locust and Willow street crossings open oxcept when trains are passing by. Vhoso changes will be made as eoon as possiblo and all the freights except tho locals will stop in the west end of the yard to test air and get ready to leave the yards. As it has been heretofore, the trains wore stopped on the crossings to test for air in accordance with the state laws, and often the brakes would stick and the train could not bo started for fifteen or twenty minutes. There is a city ordinance to tho effect that the crossings could not bo blocked longer than live minutes, but somo times tne train could not be started in that length of time and tho citizens would register o kick on account of tho cross ings being blocked. This change will eradicate all such trouble. The office of Yardmasfcr Blalock will bo moved up near the new round house in tho very near future. They are waiting now for two electrical clocks for tho men to compare tlmo with, and the movo will be made as soon as these arrive. The working hours at the shops have been set one half hour earlier, formerly tho houra were from 8 a. m. toG p. m., but with tho change they will be from 7:30 a. m. to 5:30.
