my understanding is the "s" indicates that this is for a signal box and the "A
& W" stands for Adams and Westlake. Others my have more information.

> Hello,

> I have found myself in the posession of an old key, stamped on one side
> "Burlington Route" and on the other side with the number 5766 and S. In
> very small worn letters can be made out "A & W" (possibly, I'm only sure
> of the "A") and "Chicago". An initial perusal of the rosters on your
> web site did not reveal a match. I am wondering if you could help me
> identify just what this may have been a key to, or point me in the right
> direction. It was in my father's personal effects, received in turn
> from his father, so may conceivably be to stock from the 1940's or
> earlier that is no longer in service.
>
> Thank you very much for your assistance.
