US Army Railroad (1940's)

 

To simulate wartime repairs of railroads the Claiborne-Polk United States Military Railroad was built. The railroad was about 50 miles long and had 25 bridges. It crossed the Calcasieu River. Camp Claiborne was a U.S. Army military camp during World War II located in Rapides Parish in central Louisiana. If you enjoyed this video please don't forget to hit that LIKE and SUBSCRIBE button.
