The Northwestern Extension
Ishpeming - Train service has been given the people living along the line of the C&NW extension from this city to Republic and Michigamme. At present mixed trains are run, but it is probably at no remote date regular passenger trains will run through to both towns named.
At present a mixed train leaves this city at 8:45 am reaching Republic at 10:30 and Michigamme at 10:45. Another mixed train leaves here at 2:30 pm reaching Republic at 4:15 and Michigamme at 4:00.
Trains arrive here at 2:00 pm and 6:35 pm from the west.
All trains are now run by the C&NW and The DSS&A and it is possible to reach almost any part of the county at the time desired.
