| Bill,
Should be 100lb. The movement up to 112lb did not happen
until after WWII. Can't help on ballast in that era.

  Subject: [CBQ] Rail size
  Greetings to all,
  Does anybody know (or at least have a good guess) what size of rail 
  the Q used on it's mainline through Monmouth, IL in the early 
  1940's?  It would also be good to know what ballast was used as 
  well.  I think I'm going to get to start my railroad this weekend, 
  God willing and the creek don't rise :)
  Thanks,
  Bill Allen
