I’m preparing an article for The Eagle about a the track plan back home in the early 1950’s when I was a child. It was very complicated for a town its size. I’m going to include Sanborn maps which show what I believe to be at least a dozen rail customers in a town that was 20,000 people at the time, a lot of railroad action for a relatively small town. It’s all nearly gone without a trace today, but I remember it all very well and will describe it in a lot of detail.
