A Rock Island RDC visits the passenger depot at Booneville, AR, circa 1960. The Rock Island's mainline from Amarillo to Memphis is now out-of-service, possibly track is removed at Booneville. The depot itself burned down a few years ago. Photo by Hamilton C. Moffett, 1960. Submitted by Paul Moffett.
Howe, OK, was the location of a RI-KCS interlocking; it is from the crossing of these two tracks that we see what is left of the Rock Island mainline between Amarillo and Memphis, along with a few abandoned boxcars the RI Trustee evidently had yet to retrieve. Photo by Paul Moffett, 9/1/1982.

Next to the Wewoka passenger station, an old caboose stands as a testament to the railroad that once went through town (despite it being a former Missouri Pacific caboose). Photo by Mike Palmer, 6/8/2011.
