IIRC, most if not all of the remaining 2% was owned by a Denver family
who had originally owned C&S stock that was exchanged for Q stock when
they took over the C&S. Because of that small ownership, Q was required
to maintain the C&S identification well into the BN era. Eventually, I
believe, the remaining small amount of stock was purchased by the BN
and the C&S disappeared forever. In later years, I think it was down to
one lady who controlled the stock.

NP owned 49%, and GN owned 49%, making a total of 98% of CB&Q stock
owned by
"the Hill roads." The remaining 2% was owned by others.
