Prototype Information

[Anonymous]

I am looking for help gather any information about railroading delaware and chester counties in pa. I am aware of CSX, NS, and a few shortlines but would like as much information as possible to begin the design process for my layout.

Try Keystone crossings web page. It is all about the PRR which was the 500 pound gorilla in that area.

Engine25,
If you've already researched at your local public library and the historical societies for Delaware and Chester counties, one possible source is the historical USGS quadrangle maps viewable online at Maptech:
http://historical.maptech.com/index.cfm
Another possible source, of which I was reminded by a recent posting, is Arcadia Publishing's softbound Images of Rail and Images of America series. Here's the link to Images of Rail:

Do a Search By Series.
Hope this helps.
