A Brief History of Milford Mill, Maryland
Route #67
could be considered by many to be Baltimore's "X-Files"
line. No schedules were ever printed for this service for
public distribution. No system maps show the operation of
the line. In fact, there have been some followers of the
Baltimore Transit scene who have steadfastly denied that the
route operated at all. However, despite its obscurity,
route #67 did exist, in fact operating for over a
decade, to a regular group of riders who tended to enjoy
their little secret.
The
story of the #67 line starts in fact with a railroad
line - the Western Maryland to be exact. In the
Spring of 1957, the WM decided to eliminate its
commuter service from the Northwest suburbs into Hillen
Station. Astute riders of this service got together in
search of alternate transportation to Downtown. The result
was the #67 line. By June of 1957, the charter
operation was in full swing, with a contingency of 44
passengers, splitting a bill of just over $20 per day to
cover the cost of this regular "Charter" operation.
Initially, route #67 (or the Sudbrook Charter
as it was sometimes referred) was set up to leave
Belvedere Division at 7:00am each morning. From
there, it would deadhead to the WM Sudbook Station on
Howard Road. Picking up a group of commuters there at
7:20, it would then proceed to head east on Milford Mill
Road to collect a second group of commuters at the
Howardsville Station. Then it would proceed non-stop
along Milford Mill, Reisterstown, Druid Hill, Centre, and
St. Paul, to discharge passengers at Saratoga Street.
From there, the signs were to be set "NOT IN SERVICE"
and the coach would continue south on St. Paul and Light
to Redwood, dropping off patrons at regular stops along
the way. Then, the coach would deadhead back to
Belvedere.
For
the return trip, the coach would board patrons at St.
Paul and Pleasant, before heading off non-stop at
5:20pm, along St. Paul, Saratoga, Paca, McCulloh,
Reisterstown Road, and Milford Mill to make the stops at
both the WM stations. Upon arrival at Sudbrook, the
bus would deadhead back to Belvedere.
