Tim,

Attached are DL&W roadbed specs from 1909. These were found in the book:
"Railway Track & Track Work" by E Tratman.

Just looking for a generic diagram of track profile or cross section to use
as a reference to scale down. i need to know how wide to make road bed, how
thick ballast should be, track spacing and such.
