Western Railroad Discussion > BNSF to demolish Marceline coal towersDate: 10/20/21 15:11 BNSF to demolish Marceline coal towers Author: SantaFeCF7 BNSF is to demolish the coaling towers that are in the Marceline, Mo yard within the next month. Go get your final pictures ASAP! :(

I know down the line a few towns they were offered low or no taxes on a new garage so they tore down a beautiful depot and put up a metal building about a year or two ago. Posted from iPhone |
