Greetings!
The photo I mentioned at Illinois and W. Liberty shows double track
with trolleywire contactors, possibly for signals but the contactors can
obviously be used for something else -- what else I don't know. Maybe
the contactors are locators to show when a car has passed.
If you are able to get copies of these maps, I shall certainly pay my
way. Not at all adverse to a *tarrif-surcharge* for your efforts as
well!
THANKS!
