This is great stuff!
I have a simple question --
Where does one obtain access to these corporate records?

history finding the name of Big Horn Southern, why that name I will
never understand as the southern end of the Big Horns is in Wyoming
at the CB&Q stations of Powder River, Lysite, and Bonneville. I
chose my fictional HOn3 railroad into the southern Big Horns and Owl
Creek mountains name from the Big Horn Southern with the logo as the
Rio Grande Southern but inserting Big Horn where the Rio Grande is.
My point, one can learn very much from the corporate records. CB&Q
generally had their construction companys name the railroad they were
building a different name than CB&Q and after the portion was
finished it was absorbed into the Q. My theory is that if it was not
finished the Q would not have a failure on the record of their
corporate history, but maybe some of you know different.
