I am doing some research on former CB&Q U28B's 106-115 that were delivered in 
1966, specifically the ones that went to Transkentucky after being retired by 
BN. Here is a photo showing TTI 260 at Paris, KY 4-27-93. The BN heritage is 
very apparent. This was built as CBQ 114.

Were the CB&Q U28B's all assigned to Lincoln or some other terminal before the 
BN merger? I can't find much in the way of photos of the U28B's to show what 
kind of service they were used in. Were they run in solid sets or mixed with 
other GE's and EMD's? Any info on the Burlington U28B's would be greatly 
appeciated!
