Proposed Central extension may route through Washburn area
Rumor resurfaces that Wisconsin Central plans a Prentice to Superior line this spring, with Washburn or Bayfield county as likely path. Observers favor a shorter Washburn route via the Washburn Bayfield Iron River line, saving cost and shortening lake shipments. Phillips Bee notes the line may cross Price Sawyer and Douglas counties and possibly touch Bayfield or Washburn counties, about 140 miles long.
