Proposed Idaho North and South Rail Line Visit
Leonard Way and Raymond Givens led Idaho utilities commission officials to Lewiston for a conference with Commercial club and Grange members about extending the Camas Prairie railroad from Fenn to connect with the Pacific & Idaho Northern at New Meadows. The probe seeks tonnage, future industries, and regional benefits, arguing the line would boost south Idaho, lower rates, shorten routes, aid timber and mineral sectors, and align with 1920 transportation Act provisions.
