It's also fun to retrace ghost railroads. You can follow not only surviving
roadbed that may have been converted to other uses, such as bike paths, but also roadbed that has been obliterated for agricultural use but still is visible from the air because the crops that grow on top of it are either darker or lighter than the surrounding vegetation. In Indiana you can follow the ghost of the old Erie Railroad, which in 1911 was Cal Rodgers' route from New York to Chicago on his transcontinental flight. Henry "Tom Sixkiller" wrote in message ...
