Tim,
Before the merger would have stayed home. After the merger
were assigned to Livingston and used system wide. Was in
Colorado Springs from May of 70 until May of 71 and saw
very little of the U30C's or SD40's. Since power supply
then, as it is now, comes mostly from Lincoln there were
plenty of 4-axle GE's which were all assigned to Lincoln
after the merger.
Before I went in the Army in May of 68 only C&S/FW&D power
I saw around Chicago was a few visits by the FW&D E8's.

Subject: [CBQ] Question about C&S power
Greetings gurus,
The announcement of the Atlas U30C in C&S brings a couple of
questions to mind in determining if I should aquire one.
How often, if ever, did the C&S high-horsepower locomotives
(U30C/SD40 types) get on the CB&Q proper? If/when they did, were
they restricted to the Denver-Chicago corridor, or might they appear
going to places like KC or St. Paul?
Any specific situations anyone can recall would be useful. After the
GP40s and SD24s, I'm guessing it will be a winner, so any good excuse
to have one on the roster would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tim VanMersbergen
