Geocache Description:


The Knox and Kane Railroad (K&K) was a short-line railroad in Pennsylvania that operated between Knox, in Clarion County, to Kane and then on to Mount Jewett, in McKean County. This line was a part of the old Pittsburgh and Western Railroad, At one time, the K&K derived some revenue from shipping out car loadings of coal from what had once been an extensive coal mining complex in and around the village of Lucinda, a few miles north of North Clarion Junction.

Rail 66 lies on the historic Knox-Kane railroad bed. The railroad began operations in 1982 after acquiring the right of way from the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. The primary function of the line was movement of freight, although tourism surpassed it in the latter years of the railroad. The corridor was finally abandoned in 2006 due to a lack of ridership and immediately railbanked for interim trail use. At mile 7.2, is the historic Lucinda train station accessed by traveling north on SR 66 (Route 66) to T-580 (Maple Dr).
