FOBNR member Brent Mueller, a long-time Montana Rail Link employee, encouraged a fellow employee to scan every newsletter the railroad put out in its 36 year existence. Brent sent those scans to the FOBNR to be put on our website.
Note that the newsletter had no name the first few years. In issue #24 in 1993 “Newsletter” on the masthead was changed to simply “News,” in issue #38 in 1998 the masthead got a new look but still the same name, and finally the newsletter was renamed The Dispatch starting with issue #46 in 2004.
