Rails Through the Wilds

The CSX "road" in
northern Christian County

A few years ago, the Christian County election boards did some redistricting. Now, instead of voting with our neighbors in the neighborhood Baptist church basement, just a couple miles from home, we (and others) have to drive about 15 miles. It's very inconvenient.

The one good thing about the new polls location is that, once you get done voting, you might as well go to Crofton by the backroads and see what you need from the Mennonite store. On my way to Crofton after voting, a couple of years ago, I took this photo from a railroad overpass.

In old newspapers, they speak of train tracks as "roads," not "railroads." It's funny how language changes.
