[CBQ] Re: NIFA Race Trains (was CB&Q Batavia, IL)

Leo:

Thank you for the info on NIFA on the cash fare receipts. Turns out that while 
I did not remember it correctly (hey, it has ONLY been 42 years since the 
merger), it is nice to know that I was not dreaming.

Am looking forward to the article on NIFA. That line (and its history and 
photos) is hard to come by. What little I have is due to a map in the series 
AURORA-EGLIN AREA STREETCARS & INTERURBANS, by Hopkins Stolp Peffers. Recently, 
a fellow was kind enough to send me a map of the Aurora-Geneva area -- 
highlighting where the line operated. Am waiting for the snow/cold to subside a 
bit before looking for remnants.

Thanks again,

Bill Shapotkin
