I used microsoft excel to open the file. I needed to find microsoft office in my applications and choose the Excel Program.
Have Fun.
>From another list (Untried by me) Another point is that if one does not have ms office and excel a free
program can be downloaded from www.openoffice.com. also google docs (free
with a free gmail account) also opens and saves excel files.

Yes, 9735 had a Lima Hamilton 685A diesel, as did various others, whilst 9816, 9841 and 9849 all received Caterpillar 375's.

This makes me curious. CB&Q 9735 at the Jackson Street Roundhouse has a straight-six Diesel without mufflers. While I've not heard
it run, I'm told it's pretty loud. The prime mover is said to be a Lima-Hamilton.
I may have to take a look when I'm there today.
Cat vs. Lima-Hamilton: Did the Q use both?
