Re: [CBQ] LCL

[Ted Schnepf <railsunl@sbcglobal.net>]

Hi Bill,

Thanks for posting those files.  They are very helpful, as I am 
modeling the Dubuque CBQ freight house.  In the 1953 listing Dubuque 
loaded a car for Prairie du Chein and it is listed as a "way 
car".  Would this be a car carried by the way freight and dropped off 
LCL at each town between Dubuque and PDC?

It is interesting in 1953 a car traveled from Dubuque to Galena, only 
about 15 miles.

Anyone know anything about meat reefers operating as LCL cars on 
designated routes and schedules delivering meat?

Thanks for all the help.
