For operating practices and rules, I would recommend stopping by the Sacramento Room at the downtown library (on a Sunday between 1 and 5 PM) and taking a look...
One of my favorite concepts in Model Railroading is the free-lancing of fallen flags as if they were still operating today. There is a guy in the Midwest that...

The books in the Sacramento Room are non-circulating, photocopies are 25 cents apiece. They were there the last time I was in the Sacramento Room, a few months...

This is only for those who live in Sacramento County--- Does anyone want to meet me at the Valley Station and go do a "line-walk" with me on the Cal-P towards...
Possibly SN/SP Live Oak Crossing? http://wplives.org/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1149734863 WP listers have ruled out Shafter, Kennecott, Sankey, El Pinal,...
Well, I'll go along with at least one side being electrified at one time. The rail looks fairly tall but I'll stand behind my claim of slower speeds not only...
Shadows indicate the view is to the northwest and if it is Live Oak the topos show a road crossing about 400 feet NW of the diamond. Unfortunately, I don't...
Looking at the angle of the crossing, and being the concensus is that one track looks to be (or previously was) electrified... What about the SN line where it...
Wrong angle for Mikon. I remember Globe (MP140.7 just above the American River bridge) well from the late 60's on but didn't know it was ever a diamond. Was it...
SN time table (1931) does list Globe as a crossing (WP). Terry _____ From: SacNorthern@yahoogroups.com [mailto:SacNorthern@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Al...

Dave, "Globe" is listed in the #14 Altamont Timetable about a mile north of Haggin on the UP Sacramento Sub. My UP Roseville Area Timetable (2005) confirms...
Dave, look up the intersection of Acoma Street and Traction Ave. in North Sacramento, zip 95815. Globe is about 350 feet southwest. The SN milepost is 97.759,...
Dave, would be interesting to know why the WP listers ruled out Sankey. As Biff points out, the photo seems to fit the data for Sankey as well as it does for...
Regarding the subject of "GLOBE" on the SN that you guys have been discussing lately: Right about where the old SWANSTON Branch connected to the former SN...
Yes, RT comes off the bridge and goes down Del Paso Blvd. Then it curves to the east at Arden Way. At that point it is exactly on the Swanston branch ROW. In...
I lived in the Sacramento area in 1953, and I always regarded "Globe" as the junction of the SN main line and the Swanston Branch. This is shown in any...
Had to do with the date, They thought it was post CTC installation. The batch of pictures I am scanning are from the 30's through the 70's. I think everyone is...
