Atchison, Kansas

Atchison is a town set onto the Missouri River between Kansas City and St. Joseph. The biggest feature of the town was the number of railroads going in and out of it.
Today, many of the railroads are abandoned. However, a bridge across the Missouri River survives as part of a turn around for trains.
