RAILROAD IS
ANNOYED BY
DOG MUSHERS
WI'IIOHAC.i:, Dec. 14. Dogs an
the only kind of livestock that both
ers the government railroad by tres
passing on the right-of-way. They
have become such a nuisance that an
official circular has been issued by
William Gerig, engineer, in charge, of
the Anchorage division, warning
their owners of the danger risked by
animals making use of the roadbed,
and giving notice that in the event
that any of them should he run over
by trains the federal transportation
system could not lie held responsible.
Drivers of dog teams travel along .
the roadbed of the government rail
road at every opportunity. II is a fine
trail, smooth and lightning fast, for
the daily operation of trains packs '
the snow light and hard between the
rails. At trestles, over which dog [
pulling sleds can not travel very '
well, there are improvised shoo-fly
roads that detour the spanways
There have been several narrow es
capes from serious accidents by dog
sled outfits on the railroad right-of
way. This condition is believed to
he unique in the history of railroad
ing Cows, horses and sheep, which
ofttimes worry operating officials and
claim departments of transportation
systems in the states, never ooeaslon
concern to the government railroad
in Alaska Dogs seldom if ever would
encroach on the Northland's line If
they were not driven there Mr.
Cerig's official circular on the sub
ject follows:
"Drivers of dog teams are warned
to keep their outfits off the tracks
and right-of-way of the government
railroad On Hie Seward-Anchorage
line south of Anchorage, and on the
main line, north of Anchorage, the
space between the rails 1r used bv j
dog teams, greatly to the danger of
the outfits and their drivers For
any accidents to them the government
railroad can not b eheld responsible " . i
