UNION PINE LUMBER COMPANY
Union
July 15, 1910: “The first traction train, consisting of an engine and three cars, has begun the task of hauling lumber for the Union Pine Lumber company. Heretofore the lumber from the Catherine creek country has been hauled by teams, but this year, owing to the scarcity of teams, it was thought advisable to try the traction engine as motive power. The outcome of this venture will be watched with much interest by other lumber companies.” (The Drain Nonpareil)
