Mining documentary, 'The Ozark Uplift,' premiered in 2013
12 hours ago
Mining prospered in the Tri-State District with the help of the streetcar line, which was centered in Webb City, on Madison Street, between Broadway and Daugherty Street. The photo above, of the Southwest Missouri Electric Railway maintenance building (right) and clubhouse for the company’s employees, is one of several sent by Karen Oheim for possible inclusion in a 2013 documentary, “Ozark Uplift.” She points out the mules (in the background at left), which powered the streetcars before electricity. The Clubhouse still stands and is headquarters for Charlie22 Outdoors.
