Street View

Both railroad routes through this town used to be the Frisco. Both routes are now the Kiamichi Railroad (KRR). I believe the Frisco railyard is now KRR's base of operations. KRR was the BNSF Shortline of the Year in 2018. "Since 2012, Kiamichi has improved much of its 265-mile line to handle 286k cars, including upgrades to 150 miles of track and investments of more than $35 million....leading to 300% growth in its carload business with BNSF."
