Thread-topic: [CBQ] Recent Zephyr Books
Yes, but agonizing for those of us who pride ourselves on having every
single CB&Q book ever published, but now are faced with the fact that
"you can't have it all"!

        Scott-
        AFAIK the Burlington Observation Car book is not out yet.
        Each of the recent books has just enough new, unpublished
material in it to 
        make it necessary not to pass up for a CB&Q nut.
        Of course, Schultz's book will come out just as the last of
these goes on 
        the shelf and will eclipse everything published on Zephyrs
        to date.
        Ain't it great???
