Yes, I remember reading the article that accompanied this photo and it  
was his family and two of the suited men were CB&Q officials Road  
Foreman of Engines etc.  It was kind of customary for family to  
participate and I have heard of wife even riding in cab although  
someone must have looked the other way.  One thing that confused me  
about the bars on the engine though was there were only three of them  
which was up to date in 1950 since the Mark Twain Zephyr was started  
in 1935.  Maybe they due another bar and were 2 years late in getting  
it.  Maybe the bar system wasn't the same as uniforms.  Lots of maybes  
when you go back 57 years.  Archie
