Northern Pacific Rejects Feeder Link With New Perce Road
In Neerke Idaho on July 38 the Northern Pacific moved to block a proposed feeder line from New Perce to the Northern Pacific main line near Vollmer. Builder A Jobmann reported construction of the Johnson road from New Perce to connect with the Northern Pacific at the loading stations. The 12 mile line aims to serve New Perce and surrounding New Perce prairie area, but NP policy seeks to discourage private feeder systems. Construction crews are grading, with completion expected soon, though NP’s decision could hamper independent rail operations and freight traffic. The New Perce area community has funded and secured right of way, deepening local interest in the project.
