Fee Fee Road Bridge
To answer a persons question about the railroad tracks, YES.
These are the old Rock Island tracks, I used Google maps to follow it to a location I know where they are abandoned (about 50 miles away)
So, YES, these are the Rock Island tracks from Kansas City to St. Louis
Fee Fee Road Bridge
This is a question ( not really a comment): is this the old Rock Island track? I have been interested in this particular portion of the Rock Island, but there are not many pictures available. I am just curious. Thanks.
