Thanks, I'll start on the list, how about two months instead of a year? I actually know some of this stuff, and I have old photos of that gasification plant on jackson. i suspect milwaukee road's old yard is where the sears/starbucks bldg is, next to today's stacy. but when was stacy established? i also know there was a large yard where the kingdome/seahawks stadium was/is. and argo yard, why was it sited there? maybe just the most convenient, large contiguous piece of land at that point in time for UP to use.
basically, i just wanted some RR history post-1911, which is when armbrusters's book drops off.
ill check the museum too. ill start on this list.
/thanks.
