At the Corner of Rock Island and Soo Line.
Author: RJM29

On an obscure dirt road in Caldwell County, Missouri between Polo and Cowgill is the corner of Soo Line Drive and Rock Island Rd.. 
The road parallels the former Milwaukee Road/Soo Line line to Kansas City. The Rock Island's former Spine Line runs about four miles west, now owned by the UP. 
The bridge, on the former MILW,, now CP, passes over Rock Island Road, yet another country road. One of these days I'll catch a train here.

That is some heavy propping up of a crumbling concrete bridge abutment!
