Very interesting. Thanks for this link.

Having only passed through Fort Madison once decades ago on Amtrak, I know little about the area and RR operations. Can someone enlighten me on the following?:

* What was Amtrak using for a depot all the years the old station was out of use?

* What are the RR lines passing through town? Old AT&SF main line obviously is one. Are there other BNSF lines? Former CB&Q? I saw a UP locomotive in the video. What UP lines pass through town, and what is the heritage of the line(s)?
