RE: [CBQ] Burlington Park 100 years

[Gerald & Virginia Edgar <vje68@hotmail.com>]

Since there was a spur apparently close to the riverbanks (qaurry, etc) this is 
very likely the same Burlington Park the Q used to promote as an excursion 
desitination!  Now we need to find an old photo of people boarding/detraining 
at Burlington Park!  Have seen same for other RR's as this was indeed the big 
event for many weekends pre-auto age.

Tks Leo!

The 1895 ETT #196 special instruction does reference "stone extras" to and 
from Naperville. Any trains going to the park were probably extras and 
therefore not listed in the timecard.
