Kentucky - Parker’s Lake

A lake was built by the Cincinnati Southern railroad in McCreary County Kentucky to provide water for the railroad’s locomotives. A Cumberland Falls station was built on the Cincinnati Southern line at Parker’s Lake. There travelers could get a wagon to go to see the Cumberland Falls.  The Cumberland Falls is considered one of the most scenic places in the Southeast. Mules were there to move the wagons to Cumberland Falls.  Travelers had to endure a rough four hour ride to get to see the Cumberland Falls.
