Wallace and Burke Train Service Set for Mine Workers
The board of trade hears that a canyon train linking Wallace and Burke will run to aid Hecla mine employees. Northern Pacific will run morning trains in winter and OW R & N will run afternoon service, with aims to begin by January 1. A housing shortage at Burke drives the plan, and McCarthy argues trains will attract families to Wallace. The committee reports the service is practically assured pending final official approval.
