Folks:
This seems like the best place to put this thread...
I have located Sanborn Maps of Bragg City on the River Div/Leachville Sub/Caruthersville Branch (MP 222). I'm good on the track plan.
What I cannot determine is the layout of the SSW Crossing just to the west (MP 222.5). Specifically, would this just have been a crossing or was there a connection by which the SL-SF/SSW could interchange?
The 1926 Frisco List of Agents, Stations, Etc. shows no interchange at Bragg City. However, yhe 1940 ETT shows a crossing protected by an interlocking; a 1969 Southern Division ETT shows a gate protecting the crossing.
Any thoughts? BTW, if any other fans of the River Division are out there, Tim Cannon has set up a "Scissorbill Country" social group (located at http://friscomike.txhost.us/vb/group.php. Thanks Tim!
