Elaine, I am forwarding your message to the CBQlist, an internet
discussion group with several hundred members who have knowledge of the
CB&Q and its passenger cars. Hopefully someone there can provide some
information. Is your museum open to the public? Please tell us more,
as it could generate some visits from members of the list.
Thanks, Don
