I’m new to model railroading and have decide to model a portion of the short line I used to work off of, the Kankakee, Beaverville and Southern located in east central Illinois. Is there anyone here who models it or knows of someone who models it? Looking for research sources, etc.
Gidday John, welcome to the Forum.
Thank you for introducing me to the Kankakee, Beaverville and Southern. I think that Google is going to be your initial friend.
A quick search shows me that there is a reasonable amount good images, a current and former locomotive roster, and there is the Railroads official, and unofficial web site.

Edit: I note that theere is a number of videos on YouTube going back to 1995.
