That's  OK  Rupert,

I appreciate  your research  and time spent 

On this.

I know Ernest Johnson  might be listed

As sn employee  in   1932 because he worked

On the  CB&Q from about 1910 thru  probably 

till 32. Not sure though. He died in 1942.

Sorry to disappoint you but I think that the Assignment Lists show where the locomotives were assigned, not details of the employees who crewed the locomotives.

Hello Scott,

 

Looking back at old messages I see this one below from you and I am going to try and get that BRHS company to see if they still have any left unless you still have a copy of the Assignment for 1932?

I am very interested.  My Grandfather worked for the CBQ for his whole life started approximately before 

1910. I have a photo of him standing infront of a locomotive on the Downers Grove Turn Table

on Warren Avenue. 

He lived in a house on the same side of the street as that turntable.  I think right next to  it.

He passed away in 1942 so I think he should be listed as assigned to a Locomotive in 1932. 

Photo of him on the far right in the picture pasted below.   Thank you

 

That is him on the far right near the front of the Locomotive.

 

Thanks very much

Hi Mark,

 

Check the BRHS Company Store website under "Other Printed Material".  We do have a locomotive assignment for 1932 for $2.00.  That's as far back as we go oon the Company Store.

Subject: [CBQ] Steam loco assignments ca. 1925

 

I'm looking for information on steam assignments in the 1920-1925 timeframe, especially for the Casper Division.

 

The BRHS rosters list has a spreadsheet with assignments for 1935 and 1952, but I can't find anything earlier than that.

 

Anybody have any suggestions where I can find the earlier assignments?

 

Thanks!

 

Mark P.
