[CBQ] Re: RR watches ie. Walthams

["gaedgar66" <vje68@hotmail.com>]

Jon - Per my Post to this list of July 30 enumerating all CB&Q approved watches 
as of a 1949 system agreement appended to the 1953 Agreement with the the BLE, 
one Waltham model was approved: a Size 16, 23 jewel Vanguard.  Other Walthams 
may have been approved yrs earlier, I'll have to check some of my older labor 
agreements.  Gerald
