Even though this is related to the B&M, there's some good stuff here which is great for us to model anywhere including a list of online industries as of 1955. (Excel format) as well as timetables and lists of subsidiaries, and short lines.

This in particular lists the industries the company served in 1955. When running out of names, which seems to happen way too often, here's something that we can reference for a few more different online industries.
There is also a car diagram (plans) for Budd RDCs that were owned by the B&M. The B&M, by the way, owned the largest fleet of Budd Liners in the world.
and an appropriate article on How the B&M used Budd RDCs....

Anyway, cools stuff I think!
