SEATTLE, (JP)—A British Co- |
lumbia railway official said Sat
urday that interior Alaska points
soon may be able to receive ship
ments more cheaply over a new
rail-truck land route than by sea.
John A. Kennedy, general man-1
ager of the Pacific Great Eastern
Railway, announced he is confer
ring with American rail line rep
resentatives here on rate sched
ules which will apply on the new
connection with the Territory.
Kennedy said he thinks the
rates will be lower than those now
charged by steamship lines on
freight to interiar Alaska cities.
The new route will be by rali
to Prince George, B. C., then over
the John Hart Highway to Daw
son Creek, B. C., where it joins
the Alaska Highway.
Kennedy said the Pacific Great
Eastern’s 82-mile extension from
its present terminus at Quesnel,
B. C., will be completed in 1952. !
The John Hart Highway is tor be j
opened in September. The rail- ;
way has exclusive truck hauling
rights over the John Hart road,
being built by British Columbia.
The new route wil cut approx
imately 1,000 miles off the Pacific
Northwest’s present land connec
tion with Alaska by way of the j
Alaska Highway.
