Using Mapquest to trace RR lines w/Roads

I recently used "Mapquest" to locate the Georgia Northeastern (GNRR) from Marietta, GA all the way across Cherokee County (GA) and it was very helpful for locating all but sidings and yards. It was particularly helpful locating RR in residential neighborhoods and industrial parks, Its just one more tool we are fortunate to have that we didn't even dream about ten or so years ago. Also, I have found AAA maps helpful and sometimes they are just a bit out of date as to (former) railroads referenced and for that, they may be more helpful to some modelers than if they were up-to-date. My local public library's research dept. is going to assist me in my search for specific details relevant to the late 40s/early 50s route, details, etc. of L&N through Cherokee County over same rails.
