Several errors and omissions in the story.  Too many to recite here.  But at least the old interurbans are getting some press, and that’s good.  As long as future historians do not rely on the piece!

What is the urban legend, Dennis …

The fact that the line wasn't finished until 1914?   Or the guy who wrote in telling us that the current highway bridge was the trolley bridge?
