RAILROAD Y IS
Fairly rapid progress, considering j
the difficulties encountered and the!
weather experienced, is being madej
in the construction of the Y nearlj
camp 415 on the Nenana-Fairbanks jj
branch line, and it is expected that1
the work will be completed early j
in January.
One arm of the Y is being grad
ed bv Oscar Dahl & Co., who are
■
working six men and some stock ,
to haul the dump cars with. The [
material for the fill is obtained
from a through cut which is now!
about 1600 feet away from \e end j
of the dump. The material for the
; fill is composed mostly of rock and
considerable blasting is done daily
to obtain the material.
i:
The other arm of the Y is be
ing graded by Ivory St. Clair & Co., 1
! who are also working a labor force ;
•
i of six men, with the necessary
I " 1
i stock and dump cars. The hau', :<
! from the through cut where the
1 material is obtained to the end of;
the dump is about 1000 feet; the
material obtained being similar to
that used by Dahl & Co.
For a distance of 300 feet on
each arm of the Y a fill of sixteen |
feet is necessary to reach grade •
level, and both of the contractors i
i working on the Y are now at the;
high fills.
Owing to the fact that nearly
all of the material used in the fill
is rock which has to be obtained
by blasting, the progress of the
work has not been as rapid as
those in charge would like it to be,
the progress made, however, is.
considered very satisfactory.
The work done is within the
limits of residency 1, under the
supervision of Resident Engineer
J. J. Kestley.
