[CBQ] Re: CB&Q G-3 0-6-0 in Quaker Square, Akron, OH

Bruce:

It has been 7 or 8 years since I was up there, but I do recall it still being 
there. There is a hotel there, built in an old concrete Quaker Oats grain 
elevator. I stayed there and it is pretty cool!

You might try calling the hotel there. Not sure of the name, but when I stayed 
there it was a major high end chain (Marriott, etc.).
