The new Mineral Range spur which serves the beer depots located off Pine street has seen their first delivery of freight cars. This event has been anticipated for the last four months as the depots themselves were constructed and the new spur was installed. All of this activity has accompanied the process of changing the narrow gauge line of the Mineral Range to the universal standard sized track. No longer will all of the beer headed for the Copper Country require unloading into cars of the narrow gauge at Houghton for shipment up to Red Jacket.
