Noticeable joint in the rails in front of the Kirkwood Amtrak station. This was where two different sizes of rail were joined together. During the fall of 2006, the Union Pacific Railroad undertook an extensive track rehabilitation program and replaced the rails with 141lb rail throughout this stretch of track. |
