[CBQ] Switcher Power used in Rochelle and Rockford, Ill.

["Randall Doman cbq1968@gmail.com [CBQ]" <CBQ@yahoogroups.com>]

Hi “Q” fans,

 I was wondering what the “Q” and other tenants used as switch engines for 
Rochelle and Rockford. Did they use small GP’s or switch engines.
 I do know the the RR’s that served these two towns would share the duties of 
switching out the industries. I’ve heard three - four months at a time. Where 
did they go on/off duty at. Did they use there own depots or did they use a 
central location and who’s clerk maned that location as far as switch lists or 
what work was to be preformed.
 I know in Rochelle you had the “Q”, Milwaukee Road and UP. In Rockford there 
was the “Q”, Milwaukee Road, UP and ICRR. 

 The other thing I’m looking for is a list of industries/customers for both 
locations. What commodities were received and shipped and who (RR) serviced 
them.
 A few years ago I toured the C&I Sub and photographed what was left. My main 
focus was bridges, buildings and signals. I have may other questions that 
concern this line.

 Any and all info would be helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Randy Doman
