[Anonymous]

I am trying to research any info I can get on both the Alyth and Odgen yards in Calgary for CP (in particular track plans from first generation diesel to today). Can anyone please help in pointing me in the right direction (current google searches have brought up scant info)

Thanks

You could try someone from here. http://www.calgarymodelrailway.org/ i lived and railfanned for many years with alot of the people from that site. I am sure they could help you with what was needed. As well you could try contacting the Glenbow museum as there railway archives are very extensive. http://www.glenbow.org/ hope that helps.

Hi Owen, I worked at Alyth for 27 years. If you want track plans, get a hold of the Engineering Dept at Gulf Canada Square in Calgary. You would pretty much have to go there personally (5th floor) and arrange to contact a gent named Bill Ross. He was a Manager there when I left in 2002. They have some amazing old stuff there, station/yard plans etc...If you can't get there, somebody at the Model Train Club in Calgary should have a connection there. I remember doing lots of tours with rail fans and CMR folks. Hope this helps a bit.
Cheers, Rossco
