WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 4, 2002 - NORTH ZULCH, TEXAS

A dark, cold, rainy day in North Zulch, Texas - where the Rock Island/Burlington Rockets used to zip through, if I remember correctly. I rode one of these trains in the early 1960s. Now it's still a very active BNSF line, but I didn't see any trains the half hour I was there. I did get to photograph the railroad overpass across Highway 190 - it still  says "Rock Island Lines - Burlington Lines." (ken@trainweather.com)


Larger view of the Highway 190 overpass showing "Rock Island Lines" and "Burlington Lines." Plus a scene of, I assume, a once-active row of businesses in 'downtown' North Zulch, Texas.
