Flyers going out this w/e to BRHS mbrs.  Tables for swap meet are $10 
and non-mbrs are welcome to buy same.  Shapes up to be a big meet at 
a "first time" location.  Be sure to see the nearby statue of Black 
Hawk, namesake of the Q's overnight train between Chicago & St. PAul 
and featured on Q brochures and menus.  Some great bridges, large and 
small in the area & only an hour's drive west to Thomsen, site of 1 
of the 2 remaining CB&N depots (restored on line).  NW Illinois is 
beautiful in the spring and lots of shops in & around the area for 
non-railfan family mbrs (big antique ctr in old store in nearby 
Savanna).  Saturday, April 17 - be there or be square as the old 
saying goes!
And for those of you seeking Q Timetables and the like as well as 
looking at exquisite models, bring your cameras and your wallets!
I am personally enthused about getting to meet Rupert Gamlen - ALL 
the way from New Zealand.  Despite being the literal 1/2 world away. 
he keeps up some of the files @ the BRHS web site & as you know per 
this list, is compiling a thorough listing of all Burlington freight 
cars from 1898 to 1970 (and that is a monumental task!).  See ya!
