Well there's a bit ot trivia I never thought of.Where the old rail
goes!! The 155 I was refering to is the track on the main from Ft
wayne to Chicago. There's still some in Wanatah. Measure it and divide
by 1/87. Comes to code 103. Now remember I did that measuring in 1979
before that rail was changed out. How much and where I have no idea
unless I happened by. But wanatah was one of the last sections of
sectional rail out there.

an HOer model this area - we decided on code 70 rail even though code
100 might be more prototypical for that area.  There is some 90 pound
rail down by Silver Lake, so this line has all kinds of rail heights
in a short distance.
