1. The sector of the Wejherowo (K 54-36, E 18-14) -Tczew (N 54-06,
E 18-.L8) railroad line from Gdynia to Gdansk (Danzig) has been
completed. The line is now in commission.
2. The following work has been completed on the 11-kilometer sector
between Gdansk and Pruszcz (N 51i.-16, E 18-38):
a. The original embankment has been widened on the east side
so that it can take four railroad tracks, two for steam-
driven trains and two for electric trains. The vo rk of
building the new embankment was done by the SP (Service
for Poland).
b. A second railroad bridge across the Radunia River has
been built at Sw. Wojciech. It is very near the old bridge but
is quite separate. The new bridge is 10 meters long
and is made of reinforced concrete. It has three piles,
one of which is in mid-river, and is built li to 2 meters
above the water.
c. Posts for carrying electric cables are erected along the
old tracks; the work was carried out by teams of railroad
men. When the line goes into commission the electric
trains will run along the old tracks and the steam trains
along the new.
