Thanks, Rob, and all who've responded to my question thusfar. Unfortunately, I
haven't received much info on what road's hoppers might appear in the coal
train, beyond IC cars. My version of the mine ownership will be a jointly
owned operation by the 'Q and the IC, similar to what I recall reading in the
Society's book on the Southern Illinois Coalfields. So there will DEFINITELY
be IC hoppers at the mine . . . and some gon's, too.
However, I was hoping some of you who have consist info on some of these coal
runs in the area of Illinois "somewhere" in the area between Chicago and
Galesburg, could check and share what other road's cars one might find in the
train. That's what I was hoping for. How about it?
Thanks, again!
