    Jim-

    Thanks. I just pulled out that train order. Ity's dated 1901. A big one. about 8&1/2 by 10 inches!

    If ever you come upon a map, I'm curious about the size of this operation. Or what happened to the merged company. Sounds like something that would have been swallowed up by another operation.

    :D
