Tom, I read your email on the BRHS list with great interest. The questions
you ask pertain to my layout as well, as I model from Quincy to St. Joe,
1951. I call it CB&Q Brookfield Division. I lived in Quincy and St. Joe as
a kid. Having recently moved, I'm building a new layout. It's a great area
to model. Dick Wolter
