The Northern Pacific Railroad was a significant part of the history of the United States, and of Brainerd, MN as well. This documentary will explore some of the basic facts and figures about this company, but more importantly, it will examine the impact it had on rural the Minnesota communities it served in its formative years. This documentary is being produced for Lakeland PBS by a Brainerd area independent producer/film maker.
