What a move up the ladder when we began staying at the upscale Radke Hotel with private Adirondack seating on the front stoop!  Archie

Yes Tom that's my understanding from conversations with the real old timers and research in the union files. Lots of complaints about Savanna waycar handling and conditions trying to live in a 36 or 40 ft space in the River bottoms during summer .

The discussion on Savanna as a crew change point, as well as the caboose pools, led me to post an update to my C&I trains photos spreadsheet and also a diagram of the CB&Q engine facility and roundhouse tracks.

Leo:

You mentioned in an earlier post on the aerial photo of the flooded Savanna yard that you can see the waycars on three tracks. I had not noticed that before so thanks for pointing that out. Based on the photo and the track diagram I just posted, this seems to indicate that tracks 39, 40, and 41 were the waycar tracks at Savanna - one for each division. Does this sound/look right?
