THE ORIENT ROAD - The Kansas City, Mexico & Orient Railway
Stock #: 10465
Author: Robert Pounds & John McCall
List Price: $65.00
Karen's Price:
$54.95
The dream of promoter Arthur Edward Stilwell, the Kansas City, Mexico & Orient Railway never made it to Kansas City and never made connections with the Oriental trade. Financed without the aide of Wall Street "money trusts," the railroad was constructed in many disconnected sections in Oklahoma, Kansas, Texas and the states of Sinaloa and Chihuahua in Mexico. Which for over sixty yesrs after remained a quaint, backwater operation of the great Santa Fe Railway system... a railroad that, as the old cowboy said, "didn't start nowheres, didn't end up nowheres and there weren't nothing in between".
