News Republic: Lake States Railway Historical Association works to expand online archives, membership. “The collections at the Lake States Railway Historical Association contain countless stories of early railroads and the people who worked on them, and the organization’s leaders want to share them with the world. The 5,000-square-foot historical archive on Lynn Street in Baraboo is home to thousands of books, negatives, photographs, blueprints, drawings and other historical documents that detail early railroads, with a principal focus on the Western Great Lakes Region from 1880 to 1916. Volunteers are in the process of cataloging the collections in an online database so railroad enthusiasts around the globe can see what resources the organization has to offer.”
I’ve been very interested in railways of the Upper Thumb of Michigan. However finding phots is a problem. Would like to know if they have anything on the Pontiac, Oxford and Northern? https://thumbwind.com/2016/12/08/pontiac-oxford-northern-railroad-legend-of-the-polly-ann/
Hi Thumb, I think your best bet would be to contact them directly….
