Nostalgia & History > where and what railroad?Date: 10/23/14 21:30 where and what railroad? Author: todude Photo 1 is looking straight east.
Photo 2 is looking west through a rather nasty cut... Let the guesses start, and I hope it takes longer than the last one. :) Steve   Date: 10/23/14 22:00 Re: where and what railroad? Author: gherrig Could it be the former CB&Q line between Cheyenne, Wyoming and Sterling, Colorado in between Briggsdale and New Raymer?

Date: 10/24/14 05:57 Re: where and what railroad? Author: ctillnc Can safely say that it's *not* in Florida.
Date: 10/24/14 06:03 Re: where and what railroad? Author: ddg Could easily be the Kansas Flinthills

kwo Date: 10/24/14 11:54 Re: where and what railroad? Author: bristol Would this be the former Milwaukee Road double track between Bristol, S Dakota and Andover, S Dakota?
Date: 10/24/14 12:20 Re: where and what railroad? Author: AndyBrown I'd bet it's on the RI in western IA, but I can't come up with a firm location.
Andy Date: 10/24/14 15:35 Re: where and what railroad? Author: todude Not the Milw double track and not the Milw but South Dakota is the right state.

------------------------------------------------------- > Northeast South Dakota near Watertown ========================================= Or somewhere along the western end of that CNW line that ran between Watertown and Blunt; still operated between Blunt and Onida by the latest CNW successor. If not, perhaps the Winner Branch. Date: 10/25/14 12:53 Re: where and what railroad? Author: todude yes, it is northeast South Dakota. You are getting warmer bristol.
Date: 10/26/14 11:19 Re: where and what railroad? Author: bristol Near Clark, SD?
Date: 10/26/14 11:30 Re: where and what railroad? Author: todude North west of Clark but south of hwy 12.
Date: 10/26/14 17:57 Re: where and what railroad? Author: bristol Isn't this the line that went to Conde or Doland then headed towards Aberdeen and I know the Northwestern headed north somewhere there to Groton. I believe it wasn't the Northwestern to Aberdeen but the Minneapolis & St. Louis Railroad
