New Freight Tariff Aims to Spur Eureka Nevada Rail Traffic
The Eureka Nevada Railway faces a likely July implementation of a new freight tariff aimed at ore and mining supplies. Local officials and business leaders urge drastic rate cuts to stimulate tonnage, attract capital, and revive mining in the district, noting rival lines have offered reduced ore rates if sufficient tonnage is secured. If Hamilton fails to deliver, the line may operate at a loss to move goods for a community of several thousand, with potential rate changes considered within 80 days.
