Re: [CBQ] CB&Q in NE Kansas???

["Russ Strodtz" <normansen@groundcontrol.us>]

Tom,

The "Atchison & Nebraska Rail Road Company" purchased Aug 1870
by the CB&Q. Was between Atchison KS to Rulo NE. After the
bridge between Rulo and Napier was built it was no longer that
important to run it on the west side. Think the Missouri Pacific
of Nebraska was built in 1882. Not much reason to have both side
by side.
