Mark, <br />Yes, I have been there. It is a good reference to the Cuba Sub. But, I have bad news. The old Frisco "Highline" is no longer part of the Cuba Subdivision, as the miles of the Cuba Sub continue to decrease. BNSF got permission to abandon the line from Springfield to Bolivar, once the mainline from Springfield to Kansas City.The line lived for 117 years. Plans are made for a walking path called The Highline Trail, built on the old route. The land was donated to the trail project by BNSF, and the rails are to be lifted by this fall. The last train ran in 2001. I have only seen one train on this line, it was a fairly short mixed freight, mostly tank cars. It will be missed, as is the Salem branch. <br /> <br />Brian
