| Description | KANSAS CITY - A retired, partially refurbished, Mark Twain Zephyr shows her years as she sits in Kansas City awaiting her removal to the Mid America Car Co. in Joliet, IL, her future resting place. The "cow-catcher" (shovel nose), generally located at the front, bottom of the engine, has been removed. In order to move the train to the necessary tracks, a ramp has to be constructed, and the "cow-catcher" is too low for this maneuver. The trip to Mid America takes the train through Bowling Green, MO. |
