Pine Creek Branch to the Forks Rail Extension Solves Ore Haul
The Pine creek railroad will extend to the forks and up the west fork about four miles to the Milwaukee Lumber company timber holdings. Fred Herrick negotiates with O W R N for the line, with the railroad to allow repairs and partial use of two miles of track. The Nabob mill and other mines gain reduced haul distances, boosting production and profits while creating winter employment in the woods.
