Notes


Time Line

1908. February. A wreck near here delayed the Milwaukee road train Thursday. A freight train struck an open switch a mile below Randville station and the train of cars were piled up in a heap. There was talk of sending the main line passenger around via the Northwestern but that was changed afterwards by the speedy work in clearing the track. [DD-1908-0222]
