Ed,
Yes - things have really changed since gambling in Central and Black Hawk. Many of the historic buildings were destroyed, with only the facades remaining. New buildings were then built behind the fronts. A big shame and a black eye for historical preservation in this state.
Part of the old C&S ROW has been destroyed for a casino parking lot in Black Hawk, also.
I agree about the whistles. I have been wanting to take my folding camp chair and go to the middle of the Loop line and just sit and listen to whistles one day.
