I am specifically interested in the Emporia Sub and whichever subdivision runs south through Fort Scott. I tried searching for maps on Google, but it just showed me pictures of trains on the routes instead. *!!thnx!!*

Go to BNSF web page and look for where they ship to. The maps of all the subs are there.

Ok, just took a look and now I have a new question. How do you read them properly? !**conf**!
I think the Google Maps overlay will solve the turn radius and track type issue and the terrain imports will take care of the grades, but I'm stumped by everything else.

You will need to study the legend page - 3 - of the first pdf...
Combined with google will give you everything you should need.... grades, elevations, curves, mileposts, speeds, # tracks, etc...
