From a local thrift store - taken by a lifelong Topeka resident - the epic 1951 Flood of the Kaw (Kansas) River is the "Big One" that all others are judged by. it is the reason there are so many flood control projects in Kansas.
Pictures of flooded Topeka, Lawrence and Kansas City, KS. Includes flooded railyards and steam engines clearing the mud (about 7m 1s into the video)
The original film has been donated to the Kansas State Historical Society, and they have digitized the entire reel.
