Part 5:

The train made it's way to Kansas, and switching happened. We pick the run again as the Grand Canyon departs Kansas city, MO at 5:15 AM as it begins traveling along the Marceline sub as it heads to the next (first in this part) stop: Henrietta.


Consist: 4 Baggage cars; 3 coaches; 1 L/C Diner; 1 Dorm/Lounge; & 1 6-6-4 sleeper (Valley type sleeping car).
