Here some links to the Trolley Dodger blog I follow and look forward to receiving. The reason for posting the various links is each of these has something different to show. In these is various photos and short articles, but mostly photos however, of the goings on in and around Chicago area with some pics of other operations elsewhere in the US.
The pictures are absolutely fascinating yet sad at the same time because some show the last days of the Northshore and CA&E operations. These pictures are also a treasure trove of modeling ideas, buildings, street layouts, and other things we run across.
Although US and mostly Chicago-centric, I'm sure we can all find this information helpful with our modeling and routing building as well as our passion for all things on rails.
