Electric railroad to Cooke City planned from Columbus
Montana moves toward an electric line from Columbus in Stillwater County to Cooke City on the Yellowstone edge. Bonds totaling 1.5 million dollars will fund the 42 mile first leg to Box Canyon and a 28 mile stretch to Cooke City, with 600 workers to start within 90 days. The line would tap coal, copper, gold, chrome and timber regions and enable irrigation and possible pulp mill development.
