Most interestingly was some Milwaukee Road pictures I have not seen before, there are many but I am most interested in Lines West.

  1. Do you think you could pinpoint each of these photographs on a map? I'm a project officer with Historypin's Living with the Railroads project, and our mission is to "crowdsource" the collection of metadata including location information. Since the main Historypin interface is a map, it would be great to know that some rail fans can reference the photographs' exact locations.
