Pete and Mike,
Duncan also suggested adding recording bites to the information. I will see what I can do. I once had a copy of "All Steamed UP', but sold it intending to replace it with the stereo version, but unfortunately, life got in the way and it never happened. I wish someone could find some or all of those old railroad recordings and re release them on modern CDs. More than a decade ago, Brad Miller of Mobile Fidelity started to do that with "Sunday Only" and a couple of others plus some material that had never been released, but he passed away unexpectedly before he finished the project. Brad and the original owner of MF had a number of recordings of regular service trains including Q that were released early in the series. MF still exists, but has gone in a completely different direction which has nothing to do with commercial CD recordings. I don't know who might have the railroad material.
Winston Link's, N&W recording hava all been converted to CD and are available through the Roanoke museum which, I believe, now bares his name.

Mike et al...I think it's "Sunday Only"...I have the 33 1/3 record as well as "All Steamed Up"...which is mostly, if not all, C&S with severeral conversations between Howard Fogg and the engine crew one of which is one of the Speas boys featured in a book on the C&S whose title escapes me now.
If it would be helpful I'd be glad to lend it out...Also I have, if I can find it...a VHS tape made from somebody's 16mm color film of excursions in the Kansas City, St. Joe Cameron etc area...I'll have to preview it since it's been quite a few years since I've looked at.
Let me know if anyone is interested in either of these.
Pete
