[CBQ] C&S 2-8-0s #69, 70

[John Manion <railbass@comcast.net>]

I like to acquire some history on each of the locomotives I model in HOn3
and On3.   I have a PFM HOn3 model of C&S 2-8-0 #70, which was the only C&S
narrow gauge oil burner with a tender from CB&Q #537 in Oct 1931.   It was
sold to the US Army in April 1943 to be used on the White Pass & Yukon
during WWII and scrapped at Seattle in Jan 1946.   What happened to C&S #69
and #70 in Alaska, if they actually made it that far?   Did they actually
operate on the WP&Y?
