So, in a previous post I discussed the number 4, and how it is used in the field (in the form of bent trees) in areas where rocks, boulders and mountains are scarce, and how (the 4) is used to designate a treasure accumulation room. I went into the fact that, unlike mines, treasure rooms could be set up anywhere that The Machine desired them to be set up. I stated that these rooms are always set up near water sources, like rivers and creeks, so that the water could be used for the death traps that are required within the tunnel system.
This time of year some trees begin to drop their leaves, and so this is the best time to walk the rivers and creeks, hoping to find a bent tree (with a bent limb) in the shape of a 4. But there is another sure way to find these treasure accumulations rooms that exist in ALL OF THE STATES ACROSS AMERICA.
In States like Iowa, the contents of the treasure rooms were brought in by the railroad. In fact, the railroad hauled hundreds of thousand of tons of treasure, treasure that was stolen during the Civil War from cities like Atlanta, to locations to the west. These treasures allowed for The Great Machine to control the growth of every town in America. And it is these railroads that allow us to locate the most likely spots for the treasure rooms that I am speaking of.
In almost all cases, the original treasure room, or, the first treasure room created in a County, was created within one-half mile from the railroad tracks. In other words, the train would stop just outside of town late into the night, and the contents (treasure, tunnel building supplies, etc) would be off-loaded. The Machine couldn't take chances being seen hauling these treasures by wagon, so the treasure rooms were established within a short wagon ride from the train tracks.
SOOOOO.....here's what you need to know in order to locate treasure rooms in your County......simply locate a water source (river and creek) within a half mile or so of the rail road tracks (it could be a mile or more from the tracks, depending on the circumstances) and, this winter when the trees lose their leaves, walk these areas in search of your bent trees and other signs that lead to an accumulation room. These treasure rooms can be just outside of town, or they may be a mile or more from your town.
In the case of my home town in Iowa, the tracks have all been removed, and unless your my age, then you wouldn't even know a train used to go through town. And if this is true for your area, then what you need to do is get a map of the railroad routes from say......1900. You can also ask the old timers living in your area about the railroad. But 1900 would be about right.....the Civil War was over in 1865, and it wasn't long after that that the railroads began hauling treasure to the west....so a railroad map of 1900 would probably suffice, but use your own judgment. Get several copies from several years if you want. Say...from 1890 to 1940. Somewhere in time the railroad was replaced with vehicular deliveries of treasure.
Again, locate water sources near railroad tracks, and look for the signs along the rivers and creeks that lead to treasure.
As a side note. Passenger trains were soon a big hit. But they also created one problem: how do you stop a train and off-load/on-load treasure when you have dozens of passengers aboard the train cars? I mean, once the train stops, the people are going to get off and look over the new land that they are in. Again, how do you keep these passengers occupied and seated inside the cars while treasure is unloaded near an accumulation room? The answer was actually quite simple....we know it as a train robbery. Outlaws like Jesse James (a member of The Great machine as well as a Sentinel) would simply rob the passengers and keep them occupied while the train off-loaded treasure onto the wagons. Hey, they not only kept the passengers occupied, but they also made some "spending cash."
So, this adds another important clue as to how to find these accumulation rooms: research where trains were robbed then, on map of that area where the robbery took place, look for nearby creeks and rivers. Like I said, I come from Iowa. Jesse robbed a train near Adair, Iowa. My great grandmother supposedly had Jesse and his gang as guests (they stayed in her barn) the night before this robbery took place. But I looked on a map (from 1910) of the area around this robbery and, sure enough, there is a treasure room near the train robbery site, located at a water source. This also held true at other train robbery locations.
Speaking of maps.........these old maps will ALMOST ALWAYS have treasure rooms location marked on them. And that, my friend, is fact. If you understand these old maps, then you've got it made. If you don't know how to "read" them, then just use the above information.
