A Lincoln despatch reports major railroad systems plan aggressive 1886 expansion in Nebraska. The Burlington and Missouri River would add about 200 miles south of the Platte and a Grand Island line to Wyoming Central. The Holdinge, Northwestern and Missour Valley lines push west and north with branches to Humphrey, Rapid City and more, totaling roughly 250 miles of new track. Meanwhile the Little Rock line transfers to trustees, and the Boston and Maine revises suburban fare with new 100 ride tickets and adjusted rates effective March.
