Hey Drew,
One place you may want to check is your local library. I have
several books on both CB&Q, as well as, BN. If you want I can give
the exact titles of the books. If you want rosters the BRHS has
some, I think. If not I know that you can find a BN roster at this
address http://archive.trainpix.com/BN/. I hope this helps.
