The Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railroad completed their mainline from Chicago to Seattle during 1909. At Plummer Junction, the line to Chicago went east while the western line split. Freight trains headed straight west while passenger trains detoured north through Spokane. The CMSP&P planned to electrify the line through here which would have included substation 16 at Plummer Junction. The CMSP&P abandoned operations through here during March 1980.

Union Pacific also passed through Plummer with a branch eastward to Mullan.
