Does anyone have a track chart or other info on Vinita, OK? I'm chatting with a MKT fan in mid-Missouri, and need to know more about how the Texas Special and the Bluebonnet got on MKT rails after running down the SLSF from StLUS. Thanks if you can help. Ken

The diamond in Vinita is a great location for rail fanning since both lines are still high traffic, me and my oldest son were there a few weeks ago. The switches and connecting tracks are long gone but the right of ways are evident.
Interesting to look at Vinita on google earth and see the diamond and the right of ways that connected the two lines.
