The northward advance of the Pacific Great Eastern Railway (PGE) rail head passed through Lone Butte in late April 1919. This construction camp had a large kitchen employing 25 cooks, of whom two received the Distinguished Conduct Medal and three the Military Medal during World War I. At an elevation of about 1,140 metres (3,740 ft), the former station was the highest on the line.
