Don,
Getting an idea of TP&W operations and consists is one of the things that's
been hardest about modelling Keokuk. I'll keep an eye open for the book.
Thanks.
Duncan

Duncan, The new book "Toledo, Peoria & Western in Color" (Morning Sun
Books) includes six photos taken in Keokuk ( and one taken across the
River on the Warsaw branch) on pp. 11-13.
As I recall, you are building a model railroad layout that features
Keokuk. In my opinion, these photos won't be much help in recreating
Keokuk, since they focus on TP&W trains, and not on the community of
Keokuk, the trackage, or trackside industries. However, the whole book
has many excellent illustrations of TP&W motive power, train consists,
etc. from the 1950's to the 1980's and beyond, so if you are including a
TP&W/CB&Q interchange, it would be an excellent resource for modeling
TP&W rolling stock.
