Thanks for the interesting link. Where can I read more about the dismantling of feeder lines ? All I can find is that narrow gauge was closing down or being replaced and their steel used in the war. Can't see a concerted effort though.

That's a good question --- I've looked for further information on this off-and-on myself. FWIW, that link notes that over 25,000 miles of track was shipped overseas for the war effort. The specific example I am aware of was several counties/county seats connected to a small town was 94 miles in length.
