The drive to the house is great, over a one-lane bridge and through a one-lane tunnel. It's on private land. Able to take photos from the train tracks.

[Stacy, 04/15/2017]Exteriors were shot here for the 1991 film of the elusive house where Buffalo Bill had his victim pit and his little dog and his bottle of lotion. At night we could never hear the lambs screaming because that train was so loud.
