[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dehusman</i> <br /><br />The Hiawatha branch, nee NEKM. <br />The MKT mainline south of Austin, once abandoned, now #2 Main on the UP. <br /> <br />Dave H. <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />When you say "abandoned", do you mean it had it's track removed and the ROW reverted to adjacent property owners, or was the line embargoed, with the rails still in place and ROW ownership retained? If the former, that would indeed be a rarity in these days. <br /> <br />As the #2 main, which #1 main does it parallel (e.g. from where to where), and how far apart are these lines?
