Great Railroad Strike Neares End Hits Elyria Hard
40 years ago Elyria faced a railway strike that cut the town from the outside world except for one daily passenger train in each direction. The agricultural society advertised a Niagara Falls excursion for six dollars round trip if the strike ended in time. Wheat prices ranged from 1.25 to 1.35 per bushel as farmers looked to market their large crop. The village council passed a dog licensing ordinance and ordered officers to shoot unlicensed dogs. The croquet grounds at J A Toplift hosted fierce matches with players from across the state, including J A Toplift and others, but Elyria’s locals held firm.
