Mound City and Eastern Railway : ウィキペディア英語版 | Mound City and Eastern Railway The Mound City and Eastern Railway was a small, short-lived railroad that operated in McPherson County, South Dakota. The railroad was conceived in the early twentieth century as part of a plan to provide rail access to the small town of Mound City, South Dakota. The projected route of the railway extended eastward from Mound City to the town of Leola, South Dakota, where a connection could be made with the Minneapolis and St. Louis Railway. Work on the Mound City & Eastern began in 1929, when 18 miles of trackage were completed running northwest from Leola to the new townsite of Long Lake. Financial difficulties ended work at Long Lake, however, and the remainder of the line was never built. Initially, the company operated conventional trains pulled by steam locomotives, but by the 1930s limited financial resources and a lack of traffic forced the railroad to resort to "a curious gasoline engine contraption capable of dragging five or six cars over spindly former interurban rail, making two or three trips a week except in winter, when the road frequently shut down."〔Hofsommer, Don L. ''The Tootin' Louie: A History of the Minneapolis & St. Louis Railway''. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 2005, pp. 201–202.〕 The Mound City & Eastern was abandoned in 1940. Substantial portions of the old railway grade remain evident today. ==References==
