This particular book highlights the historical representation of the town, used primarily by model railroaders. It has an interesting intro by a resident who grew up there. It's more of a technical history of the railroad structures. Most of what I have found out about the place was through random unrelated searches on the internet. I do find abandoned/ sunken towns fascinating.
