NARROW GAUGE RAILROADS An interesting facet of road construction and paving east and west of Nappanee between 1910-1920 is the narrow gauge railroad tracks thru town constructed for hauling materials to the building sites. Several old timers have recalled the narrow gauge bracks and traffic on Market Street in 1914. Some additional details have been found in several small news items in the Nappanee News of thal period. WORK ON ROADS PROGRESSING FAST: NARROW GAUGE TRACK BEING LAID ON EAST ROAD “The West Market Street road is nearly graded, ready for gravel on the stretch alx>ut three miles west of Nappanee. "The narrow gauge road is being laid from the Coppes Bros. & Zook mill yard where material is unloaded out to Market Street thru the alley east of George Miller’s residence into the country." BUILDING NARROW GAUGE "A narrow gauge railroad is being built by H.W. Reed & Sons contractors, who will improve the Bremen road for five miles out of Mishawaka. Dump cars have been shipped from Pennsylvania. "Contractors say it is much cheaper and more satisfactory to use a narrow gauge for transportation, of highway material than to haul it on wagons.

But news stories and additional information have not been found. Anyone with recollections of the narrow gauge railroads, and-or pictures of them, are urged to pass such information on to the Historical Room of the Nappanee Public Library.
