A BIT MORE INFO

You asked about the present state of the Kuykendall House on the Eagle Express route. As far as I can determine, it's not being lived in at the present, and a future renovation is in the works. The only thing that will hamper the House from being a tourist stop is its location. It's hard to tell from my photos, but access to it is practically non-existent, except for a small maintenance road. It seems that in the late 1700's inaccessibility was the main safety factor in protecting one's home from the rogue bandits that roamed the area during that period. It's probably not out of the question that it could become a whistle stop on future tours, being as how the Eagle is the only train using these rails! ~ DaveKay

Thanks for finding all that out. Don't know if anyone else was interested but I figured if I was there might be someone else too.

Looking forward to our next 'trip'
SAFE TRAVELS EVERYONE
