sw corner ia.
when the wabash in nw missouri closed shop I know of one farmer that bought a D8 and cleared and filled in the old trace right next to hwy 71 about 10mi north of maryville. he did this and fenced it right after it closed. this was in about 1974. I did not know the guy who did it but there are cattle on it today. nobody else gave it a shot.
