"Sam Lassiter, a Withrow area native, captured the 'Last Train' as it passed the Main St. grade crossing in Withrow on March 2, 1985. After almost 80 years of railroad activity, Burlington Northern quietly and without much fanfare, collected its remaining box cars and moved out closing a big chapter in the little community's history.
