Pertle Springs
Pertle Springs, owned and maintained by the University of Central of Missouri, was once a prosperous resort promoting its water as a cure-all. The resort featured cabins, an auditorium, and a three-story hotel overlooking the lakes. A group of 20,000 members informed the owner, J.H. Christopher, the resort was selected for its national convention, but transportation from the resort to the train station downtown needed to be addressed prior to their arrival.
Less than a year, the two-mile Warrensburg and Pertle Springs Railroad was opened. The line was a single-track streetcar route with a limited number of open passenger cars and a small steam engine known as a dummy, hence the railroad’s name-The Dummy. Jones Brothers Horse and Mule Barn utilized The Dummy for hauling the mules the Army bought for World War I.
