Judge McCredie rules Harriman line not in good faith in Columbia Valley conflict
Judge W W McCredie of Washington Superior Court holds that the Columbia Valley Railroad has not shown good faith to build the line along the Columbia River. The ruling allows Portland & Seattle to condemn and use the right of way as a parallel track, potentially blocking Valley progress unless Valley builds within a reasonable time. The decision cites lack of building evidence from Columbia Valley and extensive construction by Portland & Seattle.
