Paper Railroad Request

[AARR]

For those of you posting your paper railroads if possible post a diagram/map.

And if you have it a customer list with carloadings.

One of these days I'll jump in too.

Cool Y@. How'd you come up with those lines?

He was goofing around one day and just started drawing lines on a map with a ruler, and where ever they connected, he made a dot.

[Y@]

haha matt... actually I planned it out very carefully over a week long period. I think it's a pretty realistic system.

Seriously, looks like you put a lot of thought into it, Y@.

I see only one problem with that Y@, it looks to me like you have the Former CNW line from Green Bay to the Twin Cities, and roughly the position of Eau Claire Wi you run north to Superior/Duluth. The Issue is that I have the MO&W which is composed Primarily of the CNW in Northern WI. No Conflicting routes in the UP though

[Y@]

The line your reffering to is the former Chicago & Great Lakes RR (CGL) that we acquired in 1980 after they filed bankruptcy. So it looks like we have a parallel route.

Also, we are currently in negotiation to buy the abandoned Red River Line from Milwaukee to Madison, WI. If purchased, it will be upgraded to current standards as a secondary route and subdivision.

Y@'s track map looks like KCS merged with DME/ICE!! Did KCS get the bid in before CP???
