Greetings fellow modelers... I have been absent from the hobby for about 10 yrs. and have recently been bitten by the bug, HARD! [:)] Things have certainly gotten better in such a short amount of time. DCC is everywhere you look now, which is cool, acess to information for us greenhorns is abundant...my hats off to the powers-that-be! My dilema...even with this abundant information I am having troubles locating some information I am looking for. I am interested in building a freelanced/prototypical layout based on areas on central Minnesota. Particularly the areas between St. Cloud, Little Falls, and Brainerd, MN. I would like info on the industries that were located in the area. From my basic knowledge there was obviously lumber and some agricultural...but I WANT MORE! [:)] I really am interested in finding maps of yards, loco's used, etc. If it makes any difference I would like to set it sometime between 1960-1980. Any suggestions where I may find this stuff. I am hoping to find most of it on the net, I do make occasional trips that way...but not sure where i would need to go to get the info i am looking for. I can't even explain how nice it is to have forum's like this...a decade ago...I would be totally lost!!
