Platte Pipe Line Project Extends To Midwest Oil Routes
The Platte Pipe Line will transport three crude streams from Wyoming and Colorado to the Great Lakes region and beyond. Postwar delays and a 1952 steel strike slowed delivery, but construction resumed with pipe arriving through 1952. The pipeline aims to lower costs by acting as a common carrier to Wood River Chicago Bayshore and other eastern points.
