Since this is one of the more popular areas of the site, I am in the process of moving all Palm File type links to this area for convenience. This make take a while to get everything moved and perfected.

The following file is something that I worked on due to a request -- it may not have been a serious request, but he asked, "So when are you going to put the TEAM Manuals in the Palm?" Well, I worked on it a bit -- actually quite a few hours at the Away-From-Home-Terminal, and have come up with this file for an initial "test". Obviously, it would have been too bilky and too time consuming to actually include complete diagrams, so primarily this is just a "reminder" of the track numbers at the stations and the lengths, etc. It is assumed that the user will already be relatively familiar with the territory. There ARE a couple of diagrams to illustrate distances when road crossings are involved. The information is incomplete -- like Texas City needs to be done yet. More diagrams may be included in the future. Anyway, I would appreciate any feedback. I am just now using this myself in the field to get a feel for its usefulness, etc.
