Thanks for this response. Were the cooks and waiters unionised? If so,
which union? (My knowledge of U.S. unions is scanty to say the least!)

In ther era of the Naperville wreck, African-Americans would have been

Subject: [CBQ] Naperville crash
Back in February, I asked for information about the Naperville crash on
behalf of Chuck Spinner who was researching the subject, and there were a
number of useful leads.
Chuck has made more progress but is asking about getting information
regarding African American conductors and cooks. I seem to remember that
there is a group/association of/for ex passenger train crew somewhere but I
can't remember where I saw the details. Can anyone assist?
