Preparing for the Change at The
South Shore Shops Here

Ground has been cleared alongside the South Shore supply
depot in the upper yards for the new iron house, and its
erection will be commenced at once. It will be 24 x 72 feet
in size, and as soon as it is completed the iron will be
transferred to it and the old iron room will be cleared out
and fitted up as an addition to the machine shops, receiving
the machinery now in the Mackinaw shops. The engine now in
use at the upper shops will probably be utilized to operate
the electric light plant and the big engine from the Mack-
inaw takes its place in supplying the motive power for the
machinery in the shops.
