MoPac Passenger Train Schedule
Our newest life member provided us with a Missouri Pacific passenger train schedule from May 1, 1950. In the enlarged view (upper left photo), the leftmost column is the Westbound times and the rightmost column is the Eastbound times. The table indicates it takes 8 minutes to travel between the towns of Waterville, KS and Blue Rapids, KS, a distance of 4.8 miles based on the mileposts indicated in the 2nd column.
