Ticket mix-up on L&N's Flamingo - 26Feb1965
Author: penncentral74

Once The Flamingo, L&N's trains 17 & 18 provided coach service from Cincinnati OH to Atlanta GA.

While cleaning out trainmen's lockers in Cincinnati Union Terminal in the 1970's, I stumbled upon this snapshot into what to do about a ticket price mix-up by the Ticket Agent.

The conscientiousness displayed by both correspondents is truly heart warming in these days of call centers or "on line only" customer service.

Ouch!  If he had to make up the shortage, that would have been half a day's pay for a ticket clerk in 1965.
