Re: [CBQ] re mixed trains

["Dale Reeves" <drale99@verizon.net>]

When I went from Palmer, NE to Kansas City in 1945 to get into the Navy V-5 
program, my dad got me a pass for the trip. I road in the waycar behind a 
short string of freight cars, headed by an old K-2, from Palmer to Aurora, 
NE, and the rest of the way on 42.  When I was riding in the waycar, I 
didn't consider that I was riding a mixed train. I thought just I was riding 
a freight.  Dale

 In the early 50's the train thru Bradford, Il. was a mixed with passengers 
riding in the waycar, power was a gas electric on this branch, I rode it as 
a youngster from Buda to Bradford.
