[CBQ] Re: Question about the U28B's

["BrianA" <briannpman@comcast.net>]

That is actually pretty logical.  As there were only 10 U28B's it is doubtful 
they'd remain in solid sets after being delivered.  In probably a week or two 
after entering service they were scattered all over the CB&Q.  From the 
sightings you mentioned in the books they could be seen anywhere so may not 
have actually been assigned to a particular terminal either.

Thanks for the help.
