STATE LINE RAILROAD progress eyed for Milford to state line link
The Salt Lake Tribune reports strong expectation that the Milford south extension to the state line mining district will be built this year. Negotiations with Oregon Short Line, landholders Eveles Nibley, and financier McCane are said to have secured signed contracts. The line uses the Pioche grade, with Oregon Short Line supplying rails and equipment in exchange for bonds, aiming to reach Los Angeles direction and spur major regional growth despite timber supply constraints.
