I use to work for a man across the street who was in sales for the Q and he use 
to tell of the farmers needing gravel to get into the fields which fed the 
canneries in Rochelle.  He ordered up a car of cinders and had it delivered 
there to help out getting more business from the canneries.  And almost lost 
his job because the cinders were put into the company accounts as ballast and 
used for that purpose only.
He got the business and kept his job

Anybody know how the Q handled all the cinders generated by the locomotives 
? In the late 60's/early 70's on the Chgo and Aurora div they were track 
ballast  on the east end of both yards at Eola, the west end of Savanna 
yd.,many  sidings,etc.  They drained well,held the ties and were easy to walk  
on.
In the 70s if ballast was needed ,a car of gravel or granite was ordered. 
But up until the mid 50s every Rdhse was generating a steady supply of 
cinders.  Any idea how they were distributed, allocated, etc ?

Eola had the slag hole trks for the steel mill slag but where were the 
cinders accumulated ?
