Nice CS plate! Have you thought about restoring it? Gentleman by the name leanord does fantastic work on CW. Relics. He can straighten that plate out to its original shape and still have that nice patina. That's a keeper for sure!

Can you comment a bit about your technique for hunting railroad raid locations? Where are you actually hunting in relation to the RR? Are these spots hard to pinpoint via research?
