Geraldine, Montana : ウィキペディア英語版 | Geraldine, Montana
Geraldine is a town in Chouteau County, Montana, United States. The population was 261 at the 2010 census. The area around the town is an agricultural, largely wheat-producing region. ==History== Geraldine was originally created as a stop on the Milwaukee Road railroad. It was named for Almira Geraldine Rockefeller (or perhaps her daughter, Ethel Geraldine Rockefeller Dodge), the wife of William Rockefeller, the director of the railroad at the time. The town's wood-constructed railroad depot, built in 1913, has been restored in recent years and now contains displays on the history of the area. The Milwaukee Road built a branch line from Harlowton, Montana to Great Falls, MT in 1916. The town of Geraldine was named for the wife of one of the railroad executives. The depot was built in 1916 and has been restored. It is a Montana Historic Site and on the National Register of Historic Places. The Central Montana Rail runs a tourist train from Lewistown to Geraldine in the summer and passengers get to tour the restored depot.
