At the : approach off dusk they made for the I nearest stations and waited for sun rise. “It is a waste of time,” insisted young Davis, who was then master of transportation. He startled the veteran operators by sending out the first night train be tween Baltimore and Cumberland. It marked a new epoch in railroading. Davis increased his wealth and fame : rapidly.
