Remarks & Notes |
Alot of the UP's East-West mainline thru Iowa is flat and fairly straight since it runs along river valleys/bottoms. One of the exceptions is the trackage between Belle Plaine and Blairstown in central Iowa. The railroad comes out of the Iowa River Valley and works to get into the Prairie Creek bottoms. Here the hot Salt Lake City Z-train works thru the 40 mph curves east of Belle Plaine. |
