Ken, I looked through the photo and the files section but could not find any reference to the Minneapolis-Hutachinson mixed train. Can you give me a clue?

It is taken right after leaving the Depot in Minneapolis at a spot referred to as "Hole in the Wall" Also to you point about old maps, I have many maps that were created by the railroads themselves, these are great to find things in the cities here. Outstate, it is a bit more of a problem, here in Minnesota, the University has a huge aerial map library online that I can access. Generally there are some maps from the 30's more from the 50's, 60's and 70's. I am using the concept of "hole in the wall" as part of my railroad. It will provide access from hidden trackage to the layout, bringing interchange transfers into the operation. Yesterday, I repaired a couple of turnouts that needed to be fixed and juiced all of the frogs in Centralsota. Boy is that neat, I can crawl through every inch of the trackwork, nary a burble over any part of the turnouts. These are all controlled by Caboose Hobby ground throws so now I have absolute power routing. Ken ------------------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Links ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
