Re: [CBQ] Gallery Cars

Yes, its true.  The cars with that lettering are the remaining CB&Q purchased 
gallery cars.  The cars are owned by BNSF and one of it's employees added 'BNSF 
Railway' to the letterboard of the majority of the cars and 'BURLINGTON' to the 
remainder.  The cars purchased during the BN era and beyond do not have the 
letterboard above the doors so do not carry the lettering.

Subject: [CBQ] Gallery Cars

  
I was coming into CUS a couple weeks ago on the Capital Limited. As we were 
backing into the station I got to see a good mix of gallery cars used on the 
BNSF. Some of the older cars had BNSF stenciled over the door. One car had 
BURLINGTON still in place. I didn't get a picture of it. So is what I was 
seeing 
true?
