    Don Banwart’s 1982 book Rails, Rivalry, and Romance contains quite a bit about the line from early construction to abandonment in the depths of the Great Depression. It originated as the Kansas, Nebraska, and Dakota Railroad… but in spite of the usual great things forecast for those kinds of projects it only reached from Ft. Scott to Topeka.
