[CBQ] Meat Week

[Duncan Cameron <d.cameron@sympatico.ca>]

I'm raising a subject that came up years ago on the TP&W list.  The idea is 
that in the sixties and perhaps earlier, the CB&Q, CRI&P and the TP&W took turn 
about each week running meat traffic from packers in North Kansas City to be 
handed off to the NKP (I'm guessing at Peoria).  I don't know where the TP&W 
would have picked up the meat unless it was a transfer from the AT&SF at Ft. 
Madison or Lomax.  This arrangement apparently ended with the N&W merger in 
1964 because the merger gave the NKP (now part of N&W) direct access to Kansas 
City via the former Wabash.  Can anyone confirm or deny this arrangement, or 
provide additional details?

With thanks.
