Chicago Loop Area, anyone wana help?

as many of you know for some time know I have been working on modeling Chicago's Loop area. over the course of the time I have been either struggling thu computer problems or playing around7 with different ideas. after some calculations and playing around with some copied topo maps, I have decided that this project is a bit big for me to handle alone. And so I am looking for a volunteer or two who would be willing to take on a couple baseboards to help ease the load. with my calculations it will be a total of around 40 baseboards; and will include the loop, Oligive, La Salle, Union, and Millennium stations, along with the Amtrak yard, Metra BNSF yard, most of the Elec' yard. and if I can get some models done, some of the famous Chicago buildings (hopefully: the museum campus, soldier field, the art institute, sears tower, and Buckingham fountain) which leads me on a side note.... I'm also seeking people willing to help create some of these buildings (PM me) {back on topic} I do ask that if you wish to help that you show that you have some (decent) modeling skills.

Is the St. Charles Air Line going to be featured in your route, because I've wanted to model it. When my CTA route is done, I'll let you judge my modeling skills :)
 
probably, the four corner I plan to hit are: Navy pier (NE), Meigs Field (SE), AMTK engine yard (SW), where the Oligive lines turn west (NW). these are all approximate locations. the actual end will be where ever the end of the baseboard ends.
