Knowing the number of Burlington/Keokuk modelers and
passenger train gurus here, thought maybe we could
help Steve out. I should be able to find some info
buried in the piles at home.
And of course I'm always interested in more info too.
I'll also send him a link to the archives because I
know we've discussed the consists and equipment in the
past.
Be sure to include Steve's address in your emails, I
don't think he's on our list.
Thanks for your help!
