To be perfectly honest, it wasn't until last night that I found out Timetables have profile data in them. My dad has a bunch of old SP timetables from the 70's and sure enough...I looked in the back and there they were. Hope this helps!

I would just write the company and ask if they have, and would give you a copy of the profiles. Offer to pay the postage, but most railroads if they will allow you to have this data at all, will send it as a courtesy. Since there are more railfans than you realize running railroads, especially shortlines, you might also offer to send a copy of your finished product on CD to them.J. H. Sullivan, P.E.
