Still standing |
| Description: |
Theres not much still standing on the Rock Islands Choctaw Route 40 plus years after the line was largely abandoned across the Texas panhandle. This group of bridge timbers remains, near Adrian, alongside old US 66, itself now a shadow of the important existence it once had. |

Down the track |
| Description: |
Or it would be if there were any. The Rock Island Choctaw Route was abandoned wholesale when the Rock went under in 1980. Parts of it in Oklahoma were picked up by several shortlines, but across the Texas panhandle, theres almost no hint a railroad ever existed here. Were looking down the old ROW at Adrian and a now truck served elevator. |

Passed by |
| Description: |
The same pile of ties, showing how the world has passed the Rock by. The railroad has been removed, immediately adjacent US 66 was decommissioned as a through route a few years later, when I 40 was completed, the trucks on the interstate now the only serious form of transportation now extant here. |

Different view |

A slightly different angle on the tie pile reveals a hint-just a hint-that there was once a railroad here, going off to the left, into the distance. |

Sorta. |
| Description: |
If you look carefully, you can see the rise where the tracks once were. It gets harder and harder every year to find evidence of a line that once hosted the Choctaw Rocket and heavy freights. Every time I drive out here, I picture battered U Boats and GP 35s slogging along toward Amarillo, or to the SP at Tucumcari. |

Where it all begins |
| Description: |
A view from the US 54 overpass. Were looking east on the ex Rock Island Golden State Route, toward Guymon OK and Liberal Kan. Off to the right, starting about where the relay case sits, is the right of way of the one time Choctaw Route, to Amarillo, OKC and Memphis. |

Looking toward KC |
| Description: |
Parts of the Rock Island were sold off by the trustee prior to the end of Rocks operations. One of the major segments was the Golden State Route, so named for the passenger train that plied the route for many years, connecting Chicago with LA via El Paso. The hand off point was here at Tucumcari, even through Rock ownership extended another 55 miles or so to Santa Rosa. Were looking at the ex Rock line that was picked up by the SP, and now is an important route for UP. View is from the US 54 overpass. The road will follow the tracks almost within sight the entire way from here to Pratt Kan. |
