[Montana][Railroad] South Dakota, North Dakota, Montana. "The New Constellation" "Stars of the First Magnitude: Added to the Galaxy of States. N.p.: St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway Company. [1890?] Pictorial wraps. Map. 8.5 x 11 in. Illustrated. 4 pp. Full page map St. Paul Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway and Connections is by Matthews, Northrup & Co., Art-Printing Works, Buffalo, New York. Has been folded. Agent rubber stamp on rear cover. Very good.

OCLC shows no holdings. The St. Paul, Minneapolis, and Manitoba Railway was the creation of James J. Hill. Hill and three other investors purchased the nearly bankrupt St. Paul and Pacific Railroad in 1878, renaming it the St. Paul, Minneapolis and Manitoba Railway Company the following year. In 1890 all properties and operations were leased to the Great Northern Railway Company and the Great Northern purchased all of the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba Railway Company's investments, including stocks, bonds, and other miscellaneous securities. The Great Northern was formed to take over the St. Paul, Minneapolis & Manitoba properties because that firm's low authorized capitalization was considered insufficient to carry on the work of transcontinental railroad construction. During the 1890-1907 period the company constructed or acquired 1100 miles of railway in Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, and Washington, including a line from Great Falls, Montana to Everett, Washington.
