HI ALL
for those of you how are modeling the northern end of K-line between
Quincy and Burlington you need to remeber that in the cbq days there
was not the flood protection in place like there is today yet the
K-line trackage will be closed by the weekend due to high water on the
mississippi at Alexandria Mo.10:00am reading in Keokuk was 11.8 flood
stage at Keokuk is 16.0 the crest is due sunday afternoon at 18.2.the
tracks at Alexandria become cover at 16.2.after the 1993 there waas a
large flood wall protection system put in place so the yard no longer
floods out but looking at the old pictrues of Keokuk yard there was no
protection so every spring of high water the yards there would flood out.
