Frisco Line passed through the middle of my grandparent's 400 acres near Omaha, Boone County, AR. My dad (1919 - 1974) was born and raised on the property. There were loading ramps South of the trestle over Barren Branch (Barn branch if you speak native) to load the cattle Gramma and Grampa raised. Grampa died in 1920, and the cattle operation soon was reduced to subsistence farming. I have pictures of the steel trestle if anyone's interested.Interact
