Very cool! Would it be possible that you would include those pictures of the train movement on your website? Such information would be terrific for those of us who are trying to represent one of the greatest eras in US railroad history... The transport of millions of men and women, and the millions of tons of materials needed to carry the fight to the enemy in WWII. Certainly troop movements and troop logistics are often reflected upon by historians as events that occured at the frontlines. The book "America's Fighting Railroads" does a great job telling the story, but yet we're lacking the information and photographic materials to work from to model fairly accurately such movements by rail in the US during WWII. <br /> <br />Is my assumption that the battalion moved in mass by rail, but not as a single train unit, but actually moved by a number of trains each carrying per se a company? <br /> <br />Again, I can't say enough how terrific your site is... the information is some of the most complete I have reviewed concerning an US Army Armor Division. Thanks!
