Michael presents his second American rail route using the Appleton's guide, this time along a great axis of the pioneers follow-up west of the Appalachians, across the great barrier stream Mississippi. For long, the main city westward apart from Chicago was its central port Saint Louis, the Western metropolis supplying cowboy country. It prospered, growing into a real great city, flouting old and new monuments, including the 1874 engineering pioneer bridge named after US architect Eads and iconic arch which has a train inside instead of a lift.

Michael is in Lawrence, a fast-grown city in the Bleeding Kansas era of pioneers establishing a territory of Kansas and claiming statehood during the the slavery conflict escalating into the Civil war of Secession. Its home to a rare Indian school -founded to gruesomely assimilate natives from tribes from many states- turned college, where he enjoys an Indian prairie grouse dance in 'full regalia', and the proud birthplace of regulation basketball at Kansas University. A private tourist line keeps the steam train experience alive. Written by KGF Vissers
