Description
This book is for anyone interested in the history of Kansas and its railroads. In a series of 15 articles, the author tells of Kansas rail oddities such as a train robbery on the Frisco Railway in Andover, the construction of a nationally famous Rock Island Line bridge near Liberal, and the tragedy behind a grave site for six Kansas Pacific track workers near Victoria. There are stories of short lines and ghost railroads like the Scott City Northern, the St. Joseph & Topeka, and the Marion Belt & Chingawassa Springs. There's also a bibliography of the central Kansas railroad builder who became an amateur historian.
