Subject: CB&Q Buisness Car
Blackhawk
Greeting
BRHS,
I am the equipment Director for the Pacific Southwest Railway Museum located in
Campo Ca. we have the Pullman built business car Robert Peary which served as
the CB&Q Blackhawk from 1944 through the mid 60's.
In 1951 the CB&Q rebuilt the car adding the Waukesha Ice Engine and a steam
generator and numerous modifications to the car, we have been maintaining the
car for 37 years, we are trying to track down any records, schematics and
photos of the car interior that the CB&Q may of had on the
BlackHawk. We have been chasing a ground in the electrical system and
electrical schematics would be very helpful, does BRHS have any idea of the
existence of any such records, document or photos?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Ron Hyatt
Director Of Equipment
