    OK. How close is my guess? I friend was asking me if I'd ever heard of a "Chicago, Lake Shore & Eastern" RR or RY. Seems vaguely that I have. And my guess was that it might have been an EJ&E predecessor? Anyone know for certain on this one?

    :D

    [​IMG] I was right! Can't recall where I'd heard of this previously. Guess I'd better check out those links!

    The second link is indeed quite good. I've seen too many brief histories on the 'Net. And they are so vague as to have little value. This one is a very solid outline.

    I had fun last night searching for these and enjoyed the read myself too. [​IMG]
