Hol - Thanks. The bobber most likely was last used on Lines West.  Since it's just a car body, I'll speculate it came from some farmer who had acquired it for use as an out building. I'm sure its unknown history would make for an interesting story - Louis

Hol - Can you tell us the history behind CB&Q 9 (or whatever road number it once carried) now at Pioneer Village in Minden, NE?  The Museum calls the way car "narrow gauge," but obviously it was a standard gauge car.  Is this way car complete with original wheels?  Hard to tell from your earlier image that I've enhanced and attached. Almost looks like Pioneer Village ended-up with a car body that they later added wheels to.  Thanks - Louis

The Q had two types, classes NM-1 and NM-2.  Here are images of both types,  the NM-2 having been sold to the DRI&NW.  The second NM-1 shot is the one on display at Pioneer Village in Minden, Neb.

Recently I thought I saw a Q bobber way car. Either on Facebook or maybe in a book or magazine somewhere. Am I imaging this or did the Q have bobber(s)?   I’d like to see some photographs if they did

Thanks!
