Doug - Didn't Martin present his "Bootheel Lines" paper to us at the Memphis FMIG annual meeting? When was that - 1981?

Goodness, how time flies! I brought my little guy Kurt along to that meeting. Now he runs stores for Best Buy, has a nice house in Kansas, has a nice wife, and a beautiful little daughter, and one more on the way. Whew!

Too soon old, too late smart.

Martin's BOOTHEEL LINES is posted on the FMIG NEWSLETTERS string.

Martin Lofton is the owner of SUNSHINE MODELS out of Springfield, MO.

Very good article; it's one that I've referred to quite often.

The Corse's Grocery begs to be modeled. A few years back, I asked Karl for help in determining where this store was located. We hypothesized but I'd have to look through my notes to rememeber any candidates. Anyone else have thoughts?

Best Regards,

Karl

Good Article. Here in Caruthersville there were a few industries that had sidings for both Frisco and Cotton Belt.
