Before there were historical societies, modelers would do the research themselves - check books in libraries, buy or borrow books, etc. This is still possible. You don't have to have someone else do all of the work for you. What about doing a Google search to see if there are websites that cater to the roads you are looking for? There are also many YahooGroups for specific railroads. The fact that someone started a group may be an indication that there are members available and willing to share their info online. When you do a search on YahooGroups, they will list the number of people on the lists, and obviously the ones with the most names are probably the ones to look into. I know I've received some very helpful info on several of the lists that I am on. Good luck! Bob Boudreau
