TAMA VALLEY
I
The snowbound condition of the
Tanana Valley railroad tracks across
the big hill lying between Coldstream
and Chatanlka river withstood the at
tack of two engines and a snow plow
so well that the railroad crew could
not get even to the summit. After six
hours of driving work found them
selves at least a mile this side of
Ridgetop with the worst yet to come,
and returned to Fairbanks late at
night, bringing back the mail and a few
passengers.
Next morning they started again
but with small hope of getting the
plow through to Olnes. On the sum
mit. and over on the Olnes hill the
snow lies from four to six feet in
depth with a six-inch crust so hard
that a man is easily supported and in
many places a team could be driven
over it. A pecularity is that the wind
has driven fine dirt and gravel off the
big dumps along the Chatanlka river
fight into the snow, hardening the
curst so that from forty to fifty feet at
a lunge was all the two engines and
snow plow could possibly make at any
time. Taking a start of from 100 to
200 feet, the plow outfit bucked Into
it continously besides which force of
men shoveled snow, both on the Fox
side of the hill and on the Olnes
side. It is a slow process of opening
the tracks and with a gale blowing the
outlook for the immidiate railroad re
lief of Olnes and Chatanlka Is not very
bright.
