Arctic Railway Opens Far North to Ore Route
A railway within the Arctic circle begun by English and Scottish enterprise links the Gulf of Bothnia with a high Norwegian coast. The line boosts ore exports from the Gellwara region, with daily British steamers and 10 000 to 12 000 tons of coal nearby. The project employs Scottish miners and English contractors, aims to connect Lulea with Boden and Ofoten, and may become a premier tourist route to Stockholm via rail or water.
