It is the story of the Iron Range and Huron Bay Railroad that spent over $1,200,000 during the period of 1889 to 1995, to build a 36 mile railroad that never ran a train. It includes several detailed maps of the "grade" as it exists today from Champion, Michigan, all the way to Huron Bay on Lake Superior, near Skanee, and east of L'Anse.
