PS to my reply to Don's Lushton story.

The Sutton-Lushton and Sutton Clay Center lines were part of the old KC&O 
Stromsberg-Alma line. The line ran (from the north). Stromsberg, south to 
York, via Benedict Benedict-York portion is still in and has been upgraded 
for grain trains. South from York to McCool Junction, west through Lushton 
and down to Sutton. Sutton south (via Clay Center) through Fairfield, Spring 
Ranch (Spring Ranch Depot is still on site, at least in 1994), Ayr Jct (then 
called CB&Q crossing if memory serves correctly). On west through Roseland, 
(this is still in I believe) Holstein. Wilcox (crossed DeWitt - Holdrege 
line), Ragan, Huntley. Huntley - Alma line was abandoned in early 1940' when 
Harlan County Dam was constructed.
