Michigan & Ohio railroad sale sparks northern extension plans
A U S court sold the Michigan & Ohio railroad for 1 million dollars to the first mortgage bondholders, with a syndicate of large railroad operators gaining control. They plan to extend north from Marshall toward Duluth and the straits to meet the upper peninsula line, boosting freight and passenger traffic and creating a continuous Duluth to Toledo route.
