In 1910, the American Tramways Company built a streetcar line from International Falls to Ranier. They operated two electric cars and one gasoline powered vehicle. One way fare between the two cities was 5 cents. The line went out of business in 1913 because of mechanical issues which caused a decline in passengers. The building where the street cars were housed was on the lot that the Ranier Muni now occupies, but unfortunately no photographs of the storage house survive.
