Hello all,

I'm looking for a train guy/gal who can tell me everything that there is to know about the railroad spur that used to serve the complex. The stop are still on site at the end of the line. I have a few photos from the 36 flood that shows the tops of flooded cars( top right center) and that's about it. I'm looking to do something to pay tribute to the railroad for the 100th Anniversary of the show in January. Any kind of help big or small will be appreciated.

The Historic USGS Topographical Map website shows tracks there on the 1974 version:

Just enter "Maclay St, Harrisburg, PA", click on the farm building, and choose the map year available. Some dates show no tracks, some dates show assorted tracks.

P.S. It's a handy website for seeing where tracks once were.
