Russ:
Are you saying that the Flexi-Vans were found on regular 86' container
flat cars with other containers/trailers? Also, I can't find trains
#12/36 in the operating data sheets. What trains were these?
The big question is: Would the CB&Q Flexi-Vans have been found on Twin
Cities to Chicago (and back) trains in 1967/68? If not Q Flexi-Vans,
what about NYC, etc.?
