Hello...
Approaching the highwy pass from the east, about 4 miles oot you can see the road bed to the south side of the highway and below, now a dirt road, about 2 miles before the pass County road 168 takes off to the south, that is the old rail road bed, this brings you over the old pass past the old station and on to the west side of the highway 160 pass, again about 2 miles west of the pass. About 4 miles further west on 160 you will pass whats left of Russell.
Through this area the old rr bed is usually not visable, probably under Hwy 160..
Enjoy
R.C.
