| Title: |
What An Outrage! |
| Description: |
We are looking south towards Pioneer Trail while along the old Louie main line at the start of Chaska Hill. For years the trail has been closed here because, apparently, Three Rivers Parks lacks the money to fix damage caused by mudslides! Were the old Louie still in use, however, the line would have been reopened long before. This is a graphic example of why rail trails are not beneficial to preserving the integrity of rail corridors. The trail owners drag their feet on making repairs! Oh for the return of Lucian C. Sprague and the glory days of the Minneapolis & St. Louis. Mr. Sprague would have had Chaska Hill fixed in no time, my friends. |
