This past week brought some much-needed good news for the folks who live and work in Havre and across the Hi-Line. On May 24th, full, daily Amtrak service returned to the Northern tier of our state after painful, short-sighted cuts imposed last year furloughed employees and reduced service to just three days a week.

Folks from Wolf Point to Libby and everywhere in between depend on reliable, frequent Amtrak service—and the Empire Bui...

We had 40 coal trains coming through our rural area daily and when it was dry it was not unusual for a spark from a...

When You solve our problems, we have faith in Your abilities and when You don't solve our problems, You have faith in our abilities. Could be we're...
