543 To our Passengers: Many of you, unfortunately, were delayed on your trip home on Friday, July 23. The delay was caused by a failure in our Albany power plant. One of our boilers broke down yesterday, and despite the intensive efforts of our employees, it could not be repaired in time to handle the evening rush hours. Power was not restored until 7 p.m. Our improvement program ismaking substantial, encouraging progress. If all goes well, we should be able to close our existing plant and purchase commercial power on or before January 1. When this conversion is completed, we will be able to eliminate completely all delays resulting from power failure. We apologize for any personal inconvenience you may have been caused on July 23.

543 a nuestros pasajeros: Muchos de ustedes, por desgracia, se retrasaron en su viaje a casa el viernes, 23 de julio. El retraso fue causado por un fallo en nuestra planta de energía Albany. Una de nuestras calderas se rompió ayer, ya pesar de los intensos esfuerzos de nuestros empleados, no pudo ser reparado a tiempo para manejar la hora pico de la tarde.
