Jason,

I am very interested in your project because before this life is over I intend to model the ACL between Orlando and Sanford. I live in the area and at one time I took some measurements of the Sanford station which should still be buried somewhere in my computer as Auto Cad Light files. I will look for them when my job gives me some free time around April. I can, however, help you with Orlando right away.

Do an Internet search for “American Historic Building Survey”. You are looking for “memory.loc.gov/blah blah blah”. Search this page for Orlando Train Station and you will find six plates of drawings done in 1974. I am using them to construct an HO scale model.

Any information you have that you think I may be interested in please don’t hesitate to send. I should have Auto Cad 2000 on my computer at work sometime in the spring. If you should send me anything, please make the subject something bold because I only receive junk mail at this address and I usually delete thing without looking too hard.

Buddy Hill, here with the ACL/SAL is the best source you will probably find. While not all, this Society has an excellent source of station plans since the railroad not the towns and cities themselves, was the bilder of the depots. The only reason a town or city would have plans would be if they had purchased the building upon closure from the railroad.

Hey, you might want to call the different city's building office and ask them if you could get plans. Thats my best idea unless some of them are on the National Historic list and they may have drawings. Hope it helped, Jason
