The New Chisholm Trail:OKLAHOMA COOP AND TWO MARKETING GROUPS BUILD A RAIL TERMINAL

摘要

Historians and Wild West buffs know about the old Chisholm Trail in the 20 years after the Civil War. That was a route along which cattle ranchers drove huge herds from their ranches in Texas up through Oklahoma to the rail heads in Kansas for shipment to the big cities in the east.A new 6.5-million-bushel rail loading terminal in Medford, OK (580-395-3323), named for the Chisholm Trail that passed nearby, handles grain instead of livestock and is as likely to send it south to the Gulf of Mexico as anywhere else.
