Hello,

is there books or information on wether mainline track is two track mainline during the 1940’s and 1950’s on the B&M, CV and CN. I like the look of double track mainlines and I do not know where this information is available. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Regards Matthew Redden

An employee timetable for that particular road for the era would tell you.

Or just search for pictures.

A railroad might be double track or have two main tracks for portions of a route and single track for other portions.

There has been a lot posted on B&M double track in the last few weeks on the Yahoo group BM_RR.You would have to join to search messages but that is a rel good group.
