News Photo: Railroad tracks dip across a void more than 40 feet wide and 15 feet deep along a street in southeast Elwood Kansas. Raging flood waters from the Missouri River eroded all the fill under the tracks and roadbed and dropped what was left of the road surface into the void. Suspended sections of the track were left in midair.
