Pressed Brick
VITRIFIED Brick and Pipe Whenever you want to construct perma nent streets for heavy or light traffic, auto mobile speedways, or drains, use Vitnhed Brick or Vitrified Pipe. WHY? Because Vitrified wares are unaffected by heat, cold or acids in any degree; they withstand impact,are prac tically non-absorbent, are proof against erosion and endure to the end of lime Such are the Brick and Pipe made by the Denny-Renton Clay & Coal _.

Great Northern Railway, New Cascade Tunnel
14 ew Cascade Tunnel Great Northern ailway The Cascade Mountain Crossing of the Great Northern Railway "When the Pacific extension has been completed, your company will have a continuous rail line from Lake Superior, St. Paul and Minneapolis to the Pacific Coast, shorter than any existing transcontinental railway and with lower grades and less curvatures. The policy of improving the property, which has given such good results in the past, is still being followed." James J. Hill in Great Northern Railway annual report for 1890 The physical advantages mentioned above still prevail and the completion of the longest railway tunnel in the Americas is proof that the policy of improving the property is still being followed. On Thanksgiving Day, 1925, the Directors authorized the most extensive improvement project ever undertaken on the Great Northern. It involved the construction of a long tunnel piercing the backbone of the Cascade Range, the relocation of all but 7 miles of the old 50-mile line between Peshastin and Scenic, the elimination of nearly 12 miles of tunnels and snow- sheds and the electrification of 75 miles of road between Appleyard (near Wenatchee) and Skykomish. This program is now completed at a cost of $25,000,000. When the Pacific extension was begun at Havre in 1890, the outstanding engineering problem consisted of finding the best route across the Cascade Mountains. John F. Stevens, in December, 1889, had discovered Marias Pass, which gave the Great Northern by far the best Rocky Mountain crossing in the United States north of New Mexico, and immediately thereafter James J.

Before we get started I would like to explain the interview process. This interview will be structured differently than an everyday conversation. I will be changing the subject from time to time, and I will not be responding in agreement or disagreement to the things that you are saying. I am going to be as neutral as possible, focusing my comments on letting you know when I understand what you are saying and when I do not, encouraging you to elaborate, or asking follow-up questions. When the Northwest Forest Plan was formally adopted in 1994, the US Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management agreed to monitor changes to the forests they managed, as well as the social and economic characteristics of communities within the plan era.

T He History of BNSF: a Legacy for the 21St Century
HISTORY and The History of BNSF: A Legacy for the 21st Century LEGACY Th e h i s Tory of BNsF A legacy for the 21st century Few companies can claim that they’ve been around for a century, much less 160-plus years. And not many have had the impact on the growth of a nation CONTENTS that BNSF Railway and its predecessors had. Celebrating Our Heritage, Shaping Our Future 2 Celebrating our heritage and building on our success is one of BNSF’s shared values. We are confident in our future because of the tremendous challenges Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad: 1849-1970 8 we’ve overcome and the achievements we’ve made over the years. The 390 St. Louis-San Francisco Railway: 1849-1980 14 railroads that today comprise BNSF have established a great legacy for our Great Northern Railway: 1857-1970 18 company, which became part of the Berkshire Hathaway family in 2010. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway: 1859-1995 24 While many different railroads combined to form BNSF, the people who Northern Pacific Railway: 1864-1970 30 worked at those railroads shared many traits. We were — and continue to Fort Worth & Denver / Colorado and be — a unique breed, blending visionary thinking with the pragmatism of Southern: 1873-1970 & 1881-1970 36 results-oriented business leaders. Spokane, Portland and Seattle Railway: 1905-1970 40 Aligned with our ideals of the past, our Vision today is to realize the tremendous potential of BNSF Railway by providing transportation Genealogy of BNSF Railway Company 45 services that consistently meet our customers’ expectations.

Background Enacted into law on October 16, 2008, the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act of 2008 (PRIIA) (Public Law 110-432) reauthorizes the nation's intercity passenger rail provider, Amtrak. PRIIA also establishes new programs and policies to strengthen the U.S. intercity passenger rail system. Section 224 of PRIIA requires Amtrak to undertake studies of reinstating the North Coast Hiawatha route, and of reinstating or expanding service, or adding stops, on several other routes. These studies are to be submitted to Congress within one year after PRIIA’s October 16, 2008 enactment. This report fulfills the requirement of Section 224 (a) (2), which directs Amtrak to conduct a study of: “The North Coast Hiawatha Route between Chicago and Seattle, through southern Montana, which was operated by Amtrak until 1979, to determine whether to reinstate passenger rail service along the route or along segments of the route, provided that such service will not negatively impact existing Amtrak routes.
