My favorite railroad isn't just full of weeds............ it's full of trees!! The Milwaukee road rocky mountain division was and still is my favorite railroad of all time. Those mighty electrics running along and those diesels roaring there guts out.... sigh.... oh well!

It wasn't anything close to a main line, but per Tuesday's News Wire,the Knox& Kane has bit the dust, losing the Kinzua bridge killed off their passenger business and a railroad can't survive with only one shipper. Too bad, as this was a fairly nice ride, the view from the top of the viaduct was something!
