When an online industry on the CB&Q requested an empty car, would the
Q ususally try to send them a CB&Q car or just whatever empty car
might be available in the yard (realizing rules said it must be headed
in the home direction of the non-Q railroad)? If a car wasn't
available, coild a Q yardmaster pull an empty from a through freight
to route to the shipper, and if so, could they pull a Q car over a
foreign road car?
If an industry was located on Q right-of-way, would the Q usually try
to contract with them for all shipping, in and out thus using
primarily Q cars, or was it pretty hodge-podge, depending on what RR
gave best price or what RR might service perhaps an originating point
industry that shipped to the online Q industry?
I'm hosting an operations session on my layout during NMRA and
although I've read some operations books I want to make sure that I
follow CB&Q procedures.
