That sure looks like East Dubuque, Iowa, with the tunnel coming out of the 
bluff and on to cross over to the Q facility in Dubuque on the other side of 
the river.  If so, it means the Q business car is tacked onto the end of the

the sequence show the NCL has been combined with Q cars probably morning Zephyr 
and Q power.
