Burlington Route Historical Society

Gentlemen:

            The North Lee County Historical Society, a 501c3, is planning a fund raising event with the help of the Santa Fe Railway Historical & Modelers Society here in Fort Madison, IA on Friday & Saturday, April 13 & 14, 2012. We may extend it to Sunday the 15th to include a layout tour in Farmington, IA at the Hellmart. We are still working out a detailed list of clinics/programs and schedule. We have several programs lined up already. We are focusing on the AT&SF, CB&Q and BNSF here in the area around Fort Madison. Unfortunately we do not have much information or photos on the CB&Q here in Fort Madison. It would be great to have some photos of CB&Q service on the "K Line" such as the Mark Twain Zephyr or the Zephyr Rocket.

 

            Our museum is in temporary quarters in the CB&Q depot while the Santa Fe depot complex is elevated above the flood level. The city owns both depots and the NLCHS leases the Santa Fe depot complex. We are planning an open house at our museum on Friday into the evening so those arriving early and are interested can see our general interest museum with some rail displays. We would like to know if it is possible to have some information posted on your website on our mini-meet? I noticed that the BRHS is planning a spring meet in Batavia, IL on April 21, 2012.

           

            So we ask your help in sharing information and make our railfan community aware of a great location to learn more about rail history and enjoy seeing rail history in the making with an average of 70 trains a day through Fort Madison with the convergence of the two mainlines through the downtown area. 

 

            Thank you, Steve Rippeteau
