[CBQ] Re: Tracks at Quincy

[bsrls@aol.com]

Dave,

That is a very good job of overlaying the old aerial photo on the new.  I had 
suspected a change in alignment on top of the bluff approaching the east end of 
the new bridge and this definitely shows it.  It will be very interesting when 
we can compare pre-1960 track charts with the post 1960 ones.

Best,
Bill Saenger
