It's back in line after one post office pulls kiosk


• 26 Sep 2007

SALISBURY, Md.—Accustomed to bypassing the main U.S. Post Office's long waiting line, Suzi McKeen was dumbfounded to learn that her reliable Automated Postal Center had disappeared.
 
The U.S. Post Office on Route 50 decided to remove its APC because customers weren't using the machine enough to meet a standard for use, said Freda Sauter, U.S. Postal Service spokeswoman for the Baltimore district.
