Bill Ewinger led me to this excellent collection of photos that are
available online, from the University of Iowa. John Vander Mass of
Muscatine, IA amassed this huge collection/ I?ve been told that there are
in excess of 200,000 photos that were taken by John driving around for two
weeks every summer to record mainly depots.
To see the CB&Q photos ? enter CBQ in the Advanced Search box and click on
Search ? this filters out everything except the 13 pages of CB&Q photos.

There are some very interesting and rare shots ? look closely through all of
them for the gems!
