Late 40's re-alignment on Elkhorn grade

[NW Mailing List]

Jim,



Attached are drawings of Lick Branch to North Fork realignment from
sometime in 1950 filed in court house map book. Drawings run from about
N-381 to N-385. It has taken me a while to find what I filed them under.

Alex,

Thanks a million, er, I mean a Billion, for the map.  It is fantastic!  I
am going to try to continue overlaying map segments East and West of this
one and your critique will be invaluable.

Thank again,

Jim Cochran

Jim,



I have attached a piece of a coal company map of the power plant at
Switchback circa 1914. I don’t have a clear map of where the switchback
actually started, but it was some distance west of the power plant. The
only comment I can make on your drawing is the siding near the power plant
went in the opposite direction. My assumption would be the siding was put
in when the N&W was working on the realignment between Lick Branch and
Cooper(s).

Alex, All,

Thanks for the information.  On the attached map of the stretch below the
powerhouse at Switchback, I have attempted to "overlay" the old main (in
blue) and the branches/spurs/sidings (in red).  Would very much appreciate
it if you could take a look and feedback corrections, additions and
comments.

Thanks again,
Jim Cochran
