Flooding halts rail traffic on Navasota Brazos line
Flood waters from the Navasota and Brazos rivers rise beyond tracks and wash out bridges from Bremond to Bryans, with a mile of track lost and several iron spans gone. Repairs start on a 150 foot washout near town, while crews battle high water and widespread damage. Eight boats and local rescues aid potected residents as rivers still threaten routes.
