Kentville Railyard

D.A.R. railyard in Kentville, 1974. This drawing is difficult to read but is proportionately correct and was scanned at 200 DPI. The images below although not proportionally correct because they appeared photographed, not scanned, are the same map in sections and very readable with additional notes to explain some of the original notations on the map. The two buildings immediatley east of the roundhouse are the machine shop and blacksmith shop.
Railyard in sections
The above drawing is difficult to read but is proportionately correct and was scanned at 200 DPI. These images although not proportionally correct because they appeared photographed, not scanned, are the same map as above in sections and very readable with additional notes to explain some of the original notations on the map.
These images are just begging to be put on CAD. If anyone can help this way or advise what the proper way to set up a CAD file for land mapping is so others can do the tracing, please let us know. See this message thread on our forum: http://dardpi.ca/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=18#p49
