Re: [CBQ] Question about stations of Forker and Cotter on Needles to Maxwell line

[Bill Hirt <whirt@sbcglobal.net>]

Glen,

In the April 9, 1944 Centerville Division Employee Timetable, Forker is 
shown 82.4 miles from Sedan, 186.5 miles from Burlington and 34.1 miles 
from Carrollton. The timetable notes that the switch for the Forker stub 
track was on the north end with a 8 car capacity. Cotter is not listed.
