[CBQ] New indices for Waycar books, etc

["Gerald Edgar" <gvlc6@hotmail.com>]

A BIG thanks to Rupert for providing the index and Randy for getting them out 
to us owners of the Waycar & Waycar drawing books.  It never ceases to amaze me 
how someone living literally half way around the world, who has had just a 
couple quick visits to the USA, can know so much about a railroad that ceased 
to exist 43+ years ago.  Yes, you can cull a lot from the Internet BUT it takes 
a tremendous amount of time and energy to 'mine' old newspapers, etc AND comb 
thru a nearly 800 page book plus all of our BRHS Zephyr & Burlington Bulletins 
to provide indices.
BRHS gives awards, one in particular being for 'preserving CB&Q history'.  
Frankly Rupert is far more deserving than 1 or 2 previous recipients of same.  
Thanks Rupert for all your effort AND your willingness to share.  A lot of 
Burlington fans own you a Coke or a beer the next time you come over the pond 
to a BRHS meet; hope it's soon!    Gerald

PS - it also is a reminder to those of us who live in America, especially in Q 
country, to do our share and do some research, measuring of old buildings, 
putting on clinics, helping with articles, helping at meets, etc.  We all 
benefit!
