@@MBAJunction thanks for filling in some of these blanks, im not familiar with the line south of Carrolton/Bradford area. I thought maybe that was the old B&S ROW near Springville but then the fill made no sense

I'm 56 and watching these films, and the music, make me feel like I'm sitting by the fire with a cup of cocoa (with some whiskey in it) wrapped up in the snuggiest blanket. Thank you.
