White Sulphur Springs and Yellowstone Park Railway

White Sulphur Springs and Yellowstone Park Railway

The White Sulphur Springs and Yellowstone Park Railway Reporting mark|WSYP, now defunct, was an American railroad built and operated between the towns of Ringling and White Sulphur Springs, Montana, a distance of 22.8 miles. The railroad, constructed in 1910, provided White Sulphur Springs with a link to the national railway network via a connection with the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad ("the Milwaukee Road") at Ringling. The southern four miles of the railroad's route, between Ringling and Dorsey, were leased from the Milwaukee Road.

The railroad was abandoned in 1980, a consequence of the Milwaukee Road abandoning its line through Ringling.
