Re: [CBQ] The Burlington & Missouri River RR in Nebraska

Hello,
  If it was anything like it was with the F.C.N.G.Ry., it was to get to the 
coal fields before any other railroad did.

          Thanks for the information. A further question for anyone who can
answer: what was the reason for owning the subsidiary lines for 20-odd
years but operating them under a separate name? Up until 1900-1904, in
what ways were the CB&Q and the B&MR(Neb) operated separately?

Thanks again,

Robb
