Re: [CBQ] Re: Q Fan Trips

I rode a Q excursion from Davenport as a child.  My dad took some very limited movie footage of it showing 4960 and bi level commuter cars..  I was 5 in 1962 and remember riding in a bi level.  When it came time to tour the locomotive at the end of the trip, my dad couldn't get me near it.  As a 5 year old I was taught fire was bad and I wouldn't go near it.  O to have a time machine and have a "do over"!!

I believe the trip out of Davenport with 4960 was in May 1961 as I was
on hand, but did not ride, and I moved from the Quad Cities that summer,
so it would not have been 1962. I have photos of 4960 that my brother
took. He was not a rail fan, but was an art student so the photos are
more "artsy" in nature.
