New Pacific Railroad Plans From San Francisco to Denver
The Denver Republican outlines the organization of a new railroad to connect San Francisco and Denver. A preliminary line runs from Alameda across the bay to Gilroy, then west through the Sierra Nevada toward Yosemite and Mono Lake area, then south through Nevada to Milford Territory, with a branch toward the Grand River valley and Denver. Main line about 1,200 miles, branches 900 more, with heavy English capital and $2,000,000 in stock already secured. The project promises the shortest, easiest route between the Pacific and Denver, with work likely to start at both ends after surveys are completed.
