      Good Morning.

      Was wondering if you could steer me in the proper direction.

      I was born and raised in Omaha ( 1960 – 1978)

      I lived a 150 yards from the Belt Line ( 63rd and Center) I have memories of a switcher ( MP-15 / SW1500 / NW2 ? ) pulling a string of box cars at various times.

      As a model railroader, I was thinking of planning a new layout based on the Omaha Belt Line.

      ? Are you aware of any published documentation (books / Trains articles / etc) that could help me with trying to capture the essence of the Belt Line ?

      Thank-you for your time and consideration.

      Mr Sleep

        Dick Ryker here in Omaha did a presentation on the Belt Line at the Missouri Pacific Historical Society meet here a few years ago. Dick might have some material.
