    A map of Illinois, showing the trackage of the Augsburg & Concord Railroad is now on display on the railroad's web page.

    In an effort to continue to place the Augsburg & Concord Railroad in the realm of "free-lanced reality," I felt a map showing the location of the main towns on the rail line was necessary.

    I already knew where in Illinois the railroad ran, but struggled to find a map to show the world. Then Model Railroad Planning 2002 has this great map of Illinois. Bingo. A scan, some eediting, a little html, and presto....the map's available.

    Take a look. As alway, comments, pro and con (please be kind) are welcome.

    Jeff, You know that if you did'nt tell people they were fictional places and just showed the map they would think they were real towns! :eek:

    Very good indeed! I think it is time to figure out where exactly my line runs and come up with a map! :D

    Like Jeff, I know exactly where the line runs but have not done up a map for it (new benchwork is what I need most...before the wife gets ideas about the corner of the basement she gave me!!)

    Like I said, I would follow in Jeff's steps and get around to doing a map. Click on the link to my site below and choose "map" (The first selection on your left.) There you will find a map of southern Pa. with the HVRR's trackage. A very small line.
