I'm interesting in modeling a condensed version of the Portland, ME Union Station. Can anyone direct me to a source for the track layout during the late steam era? Thanks,

David

David,
Welcome to the forum !
One source you might want to try is:
http://historical.maptech.com/index.cfm
Maptech has, as the URL implies, a collection of USGS historical quadrangle maps. Possibly they have the appropriate quadrangle(s) that cover(s) the Union Station area in the late steam era. Another source you might want to try is:
