Katy Northwest the Story of a Branch Line Railroad por Donovan L. Hofsommer

this is a VERY WORDY book. It could have been written in 1/2 the words that were used. I mostly skimmed it. It was interesting to see how bad the physical plant was of the Katy. It's surprising the line lasted as long as it did.
