[CBQ] Re: Mixed trains on the CB&Q

[Gerald & Virginia Edgar <vje68@hotmail.com>]

Fellow Q fans - there have more than enough responses to justify a nice article 
in the Zephyr or part of a Bulletin on Q mixed trains.  Using the responses as 
a start (what equipment was used on which line, time frames, etc) and a few 
photos along with stories such as Archie's and "Presto!" - an article!  

 

Now who is willing to take the current postings, inquire for more, get some 
photos, etc.  Bulletins & Zephyrs do not come from thin air; they need input 
from you & me (& yes I'm working on 2 articles plus my recurring column on 
Burlington collectibles).  

 

So what say you?!  (I'd supply pics I have inside & out of waycar #14560 I once 
owned; 1 of 6 rebuilt in "59 for branch service. In this case the 
Edgemont-Lead/Deadwood line.  Also excerpts from timetables, ANY year, as to 
which branches advertised 'mixed' service)

 

The article could also include listing of commercial models of equipment used 
in branch/mixed service as well as some pics of scratch-built models by mbrs 
including some great ones Bernie Corbin had.
