Fredonia Washout Delays Trains on Rock Island Line

A large sand pit filled with water caused a culvert breach, washing out about eighty feet of track and a deep hole. Road crews and two hundred workers rushed in from Ainsworth and Columbus Junction to repair, with trains rerouted via West Liberty and late Chicago-bound services.
