Routes An important change in power con- trol on the Chicago North Shore and Milwaukee railroad is announced whereby supervision of substation operation on the Skokie Valley route, the Shore line and the Libertyville branch has been centralized at North Chicago. This new step in co-ordination of power facilities insures greater effi- ciency and despatch in maintaining service on the North Shore line, it is explained. Another important move toward this end was the recent unifi- cation of train control through which all operaton between Howard street. Chicago, and the Milwaukee terminal is directed from North Chicago Junc- tion tower. Supervision of substations from this central location is in the hands of three load despatchers who are re- sponsible for "keeping the power on" twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year. Theirs is an unceasing vigil, for maintenance of continuous service on this high-speed electrically operated railroad requires that the current flow steadily through the cop- per wires suspended above the tracks. Many improvements in power feed- ing and transmission are being made on the North Shore line in carrying out a progressive program of develop- ment. An outstanding feature of this program is the replacement of manual- ly controlled substations with auto- matic units. Mr. and Mrs. Edwin R.
