Montana Southern railway opens route through Big Hole Basin
The Montana Southern railroad nears completion from Divide to Elk Horn, a 40 mile stretch, with steel laid within five miles of Elk Horn and a progress rate near a mile daily. It will serve trade and passenger needs, link Boston & Montana mines at Elkhorn, and may extend to Wisdom, passing Allentown and Dewey Flats with scenic river canyon views and a 342 foot trestle.
