Archie, and all;
Thanks for your kind words about the web site. I just returned home
today from a few days in Indianapolis and had very limited access to
e-mail, but did manage to work on some page updates while I was away.
I've added several more things to the site this evening...
A page dedicated to the Burlington & Northwestern/Burlington & Western
branches, which some of you may recall from my original web site of 2-3
years ago. - See the "Other Links" page
Plus, some more CB&Q artifacts (See the "Artifacts" page)
A CB&Q Demurrage pamphlet, probably from the 1950's
1916 CB&Q LCL Rules booklet
1940 CB&Q Distribution Chart - relates to use and routing of freight cars
See <http://www.keokukandwesternrr.com> if you are interested
That's all for now. Enjoy.
Best regards, Rob Adams
