March 2, 1970 was the last "Official" day of existence for the CB&Q. The BN
merger was effective at 12:01 am, Central Standard Time on March 3, 1970.
However, from point of view, the Burlington lives on, pulling the Northern
Santa Fe along with it...

Glad I'm not the only guy who has no idea what the significance of
March 2 is.
Okay, guys. I give up.
One guess - was it the last day of operation of the CB&Q before the
merger to become BN?
