Just a footnote: this includes a lot of lines that don't exist, have been abandoned, or repurposed. As an example in Kansas, the steel rail lines from Osawatomie to Osage City have long been ripped up and scrapped. They are now rails-to-trails projects. Several other of the railroads marked are the same way (I know because well I visit these places quite often). Great use of the land btw, and makes for some beautiful passage across the state.
