Milwaukee map location

| Kenn Milewski posted https://youtu.be/o1SOgXjZtqs?si=VGwjC5smqDKIpD1g Michael Sol: The "ground" in that particular portion of the Milwaukee Road's long branch-line to Great Falls and Agawam was "shifty." Tunnels did not stabilize that ground, and it was finally easier to just "daylight" the tunnels, or, at a minimum, remove the overburden so that it no longer would push the tunnels around. Problem solved! [It looks like the problem was not solved because the cut had a landslide and covered where the track would have been.] |
I tried watching the video Kenn links to, but the narrator kept saying the land was scenic. I gave up at 2:23 because of too much scenery talk and because it looked like it was going to be a "come explore with me" video.
