[RITSlist] Peoria

[bryanbechtold]

I have tried to get info like that from RITS for years, but to no  
avail. I have Sanborne maps of the Peoria waterfront, but I don't  
feel they show the full track layout.

I have not had an opportunity to contact Dick Wilhelm of Peoria, but  
I believe he would have full photographic coverage.

Just last night my brother, an engineer with the T&P, said he was  
sending a recent article that talked about a RR museum in Pekin with  
extensive archive material. He felt I might find the maps I have been  
seeking there. I found nothing concrete about it online this AM.

The Peoria Library has been no help.

I can make copies of the Sanborne maps if you like. Please include me  
on anything you might uncover.

Cheers,

Bryan Bechtold
