Every once in awhile one 'finds' something that even though its been
available for awhile, you haven't really checked out. In my case its
these books on locomotives currently preserved on display or at
operating museums. Author Tim Mulina posted to this list for info
and I happened to have the bell; this list I guess helped them find
us! BHI/Rail Systems has about 30 of these books and 10% are CB&Q!
(E8A 9939A & SilverCharger - both @ Nat. Transportation Museum in St.
Louis & O5b #5629 @ Colorado RR Mus in Golden). They are spiral
bound heavy stock & 50 pp (diesel) & 62 pp (steam) in this case.
It's not hard to find photos of Q loco's in service but generally
these are the standard broadsides or 3/4 views The Quick Pic books
are full of evey conceivable close-up and angle - I counted nearly
200 pics in the 5629 book!
As a modeler these books are great if you model the locos at the end
of their careers as the detail pics of course are 'as retired'.
PS - book reviews are also welcome for use in the Zephyr.
