The Katy
Posted by nickt22 on Monday, August 7, 2006 1:03 PM
Im trying to learn more about the Missouri, Kansas, & Texas railroad. I live in Warrensburg, MO and would like to model the railroads stretch between Clinton and Sedalia, MO. Does anyone have a lot of knowledge on the Katy?

When was that abandoned, 1988 ? Have you ridden the bike trail there ?

What's happening with the fight over the lift bridge up at Boonville ?  Any news this year ? I guess you can't put that on your layout.
