[CBQ] Chicago smoke pollution

["Rupert & Maureen" <gamlenz@ihug.co.nz>]

Dave



The American Engineer and Railroad Journal for 1911, on the subject of the 
smoke problem in Chicago, presented a table showing the smoke reports for 31 
railroads that ran into Chicago.  It commented -



    Out of seven reports, this is the sixth in which the Chicago, Burlington & 
Quincy has maintained
         first place. The Burlington certainly is to be congratulated on the 
success it has attained, 
         especially when it is considered that this road has a very large 
number of locomotives operating
         in the city.



No further comment is needed!
