It's OK Phil.  I understand that Kansas isn's exactly
what you would call "scenic".  However,  in "Big
Wheels Rolling" there is a scene where the Golden
State crossed that bridge from right to left on the
screen, so it must've been  heading toward Liberal,
assuming that it was filmed from the highway side. I
can probably glean a slide from that scene, although
it wasn'nt the greatest lighting event, it may be
acceptable.
