Northern pacific

Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, February 24, 2005 3:09 PM

Does anyone know if the northern pacific was build and running in 1905 and does anyone know here it was active and finally if it had any mines on the route?

P.S All info must be based for the 1905 time period.

Thanks.

Northern Pacific's first transcontinental train came into Portland, Oregon in 1883, so it was definitely up and running in 1905. Try www.nprha.org for more info.

Good Luck!
