Here's a photo I took on August 23, 1996, TWENTY-SIX YEARS AGO, while I was making my way across the UP Hoisington Subdivision, a former Missouri Pacific property that is now lightly used in some places and abandoned in others.

During my layover in Horace, KS, I took this photo of a westbound freight that had stopped for a crew change and was being led by a Conrail unit in pool service.

Today, the depot appears to be abandoned and service on the line is provided on an as-needed basis by the Kansas & Oklahoma Railroad, one of the WATCO companies.
