I must begin by saying I model the Santa Fe Railroad in eastern Kansas during the transition period of 1950-53. Emporia was the home to a large Armour meat processing plant and the largest cattle feeding station on the Santa Fe. The Howard Branch that headed south was in the bluestem grass region known for fattening cattle on their way to market.

Please forgive me if I don't speak to your exact interest, but my specialty is the ATSF, 1950-53, Emporia Kansas and the Howard Branch.
