Well, for me at least. Mexico, Missouri was served by the CB&Q, Wabash, and Alton/GM&O, with the Q and the Alton having trackage rights on each other from Kansas City to St. Louis. In the year I am going to model, 1948, the Burlington kept mostly steam on secondary main lines, keeping the newer diesels for the Chicago to Denver and the Chicago to St. Paul/Minneanapolis lines. The "Rebel Route" had almost 100% diesels this early, including Alcos, and the Wabash still had a good mix of both steam and diesels. <br /> <br /> However, that's about all I know about these three lines in Mexico, MO, so I need some information on train schedules, passenger trains (even consists if you can manage it) and pictures or links about Mexico and the small yard there. I'd like info mainly on the Wabash and GM&O, the Burlington Route is no problem for me to research. <br /> <br />Thanks in advance-Christopher
