词条 Lac La Belle and Calumet Railroad
释义

  1. References

The Lac La Belle and Calumet Railroad was an American, {{RailGauge|3ft|lk=on}} narrow gauge railroad that operated in the Keweenaw Peninsula, or the extreme northern Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The line ran between a stamp mill at Lac La Belle and two copper mines, the Mendota and the Delaware, from 1883 to 1888, when poor economic conditions forced the line's closure. The defunct company and its tracks were later purchased by the Copper Range Company, which converted the line to standard gauge and changed the railroad's name to the Keweenaw Central. This company failed in 1917, and the former Lac La Belle and Calumet tracks were removed in 1918.
