Take a couple of anecdotes about a town called Rogerton located at what is now Gotch Park. Add a train timetable listing that stop between Humboldt and Fort Dodge. What we end up with is a mystery. It is a mystery because none of our friends at the Humboldt County Historical Museum have ever heard of it.
You will find Rogerton listed on the Iowa State Government website for railroad abandonments.
You will even find Rogerton in a Minneapolis & St. Louis timetable from 1957.
If you have any information about a town along the old M&StL Railroad called Rogerton, please email info@threeriverstrail.org.
