      <abstract>These data are railroads for the Belt-Stockett-Sand Coulee area southeast of Great Falls, Montana. Data for the Southwest Great Falls, Southeast Great Falls, and Fife quadrangles were derived from U.S. Geological Survey 1:24,000 scale Digital Line Graphs (DLGs). Data on the Belt quadrangle were digitized by hand at the State Library from the 1:24,000 scale USGS paper topographic map. Data for the remaining quandrangles were scanned from paper USGS topographic maps and vectorized by SMD Engineering. The topographic maps of the Belt, Belt NE, Blythe, and Armington quadrangles were dated 1982. All the other quadrangles were dated 1991.</abstract>
      <purpose>These data were produced to support mine reclamation efforts of the Reclamation Division of the Montana Department of Environmental Quality.</purpose>
