Ken Roble	General	Its a shame this line across Missouri is all abandoned. Do you know if the entire line is still in place?	4/28/2013 10:27:25 PM

Rev. Jonathan Spurlock	General	Ken, I'm so sorry I didn't see your reply. Around the last of December 2015 and early 2016, most of this line was indeed taken up at least as far as Meta and Freeburg. The tracks from Windsor, west, were already gone by fall 2014. Some track remained around Eldon but all of it's gone now. With nature reclaiming the former right of way, it's going to be difficult to tell a railroad was ever there.	7/9/2022 12:58:11 PM

Two streaks of rust are still in place and the ballast doesn't look too bad. Sadly, a lot of brush and small trees are reclaiming the ex-Rock Island St Louis-KC sub.
