Hello everyone!

I recently joined this group to learn more about the
CB&Q. I am currently doing research an a presention
and article on train movements on the Pennsylvania
Railroad in Indiana in 1965.

>From my research, I have determined that the Pennsy
did allot of interchange with the CB&Q in Chicago. In
fact, a freight train dedicated for CB&Q was
established in the early 1960's. The Pennsy called
these trains AC-1 and AC-2. In late August 1965, AC-4
was established. 

My question is do these symbols mean anything to you?
In comparing train symbols on the PRR, "AC" does not
match. Hence, I am wondering if this symbol fits in
with CB&Q freight train symbols in the 1960's. 

Any information that you can provide me would be
greatly appreciated.

P.S.: I used to live in Naperville, Ill in the late
1980's about a third of mile from the Q's mainline
