Running through Hannibal |
| Description: |
Three NS units (9615, 9147, 5105) lead a westbound freight through Hannibal MO as the rails turn from along the river back towards the west. Not much remains from the city's railroad heyday. At the start of World War II the CB&Q, Wabash, St Louis & Hannibal and Hannibal Connecting (in nearby Ilasco) were all here, and the Burlington had a substantial divisional roundhouse and shop complex located just south of downtown. Now BNSF bairly slows down as it passes through while NS has a small, underused yard on the west side. |
