Hank- I've taken a look at your drawings on your web site and they are impressive and to the best of my rememberances, appear to be right. I lived in Rutherford NJ for the first twenty years of my life and "hung out" around the BJ Tower and Rutherford/East Rutherford complex and knew that area inside out. Looks good on your diagram. You have a "sometimes wavy line" under the track diagram. Can you tell me what that represents?? Also the lines below the wavy line seems to portray "grades"? Is that correct?? - -Joe Jordan At 02:42 PM 10/3/98 -0400, you wrote: >I'm in the process of drawing track diagrams of the Erie and DL&W lines in >New Jersey to post on my web site.
