ommodation of the uburban service of these railroads has not been worked out, but with the co-operation of the railroads it should be possible to work out a plan that would be satisfactory to them and result in greater ,commodation to the public. Such a plan might properly contemplate an underground rail-road connecting the terminals which would permit of a direct inter-change of passenger equipment between these terminals and a rout-ing of suburban trains in a manner that would eliminate the existingcongestion caused by the present method of operating the terminalservices.
