[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by capt_turk</i> <br /><br />I grew up in Bristow Okla. Santa Fe parrelled 66, generally within a block or two of the hwy for most of the way from Tulsa to Oklahoma City. There are many small towns between the two Cities, and the railroad usually ran right through the middle of town. In Bristow, the railroad ran one block off Main St. with the train station in the middle of town. The station is a museum now. Brick construction with the platform made of brick also. It was a passenger stop until the early 60's. Some of the small towns, such as Bristow, had a siding that parrelled the main track where it passed the station. <br />The track parrelled Main St. to the south end of town where it crossed Main St. to continue parrelleling 66. <br />There is a site for Route 66 that will give you alot of info and pictures from the 40's through the 60's. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Capt. Turk; <br /> <br />Thanks for the info, sorry for the loooong gap between replies, lifel got in the way. Thanks Again. <br /> <br />Coyote
