Thanks for the info, CoalMiner3. This particular part of Simpson's RR is actually still in operation! <br /> <br />My idea is to model the present day. I think the most they do nowadays is move logs from the Port of Shelton to the mill, which is only several hundred yards away and from a staging yard 6 or 8 miles in the direction opposite the Port. I think they also transfer raw product to a mill in McCleary that makes doors, as well as allow PS&P to utilize trackage on their treks from Chehalis to Bremerton Shipyards. <br /> <br />I'd like to find a map or route book of sorts that shows mileages, sidings, crossings, interchanges, blocks and all that stuff. Terraserver is great, but when the track runs in the woods, it just dissapears! <br /> <br />I'll seek out "The Climax" book, however, and see what can be gleened from it! <br /> <br />Thanks! <br /> <br />Rey.
