Two railroads used to converge here; the Missouri Pacific and the Santa Fe. The MoPac was merged into the UP and that line was sold to a shortline carrier (now Central Kansas). The Santa Fe was sold to the Garden City Western and has removed rails a few miles south of town.

| Looking south where the Santa Fe used to enter town from Garden City and turn east. The former MoPac crossed in the distance and has now been sold to a shortline operator since the UP merger. Sadly the line is severed about 1/2 mile further south. The line is in tact about 3 miles further south all the way to Garden City.
