Fabulous photos! However I noted that the
image for CB+Q459, featuring
9927B is reversed.

RE: [CBQ] On the Road
Again...
Pete:
Some of the them are probably taken in Montana or
Wyoming. I
think several others are on Lines East.
I think #7 is taken at NP Billings depot looking
west. #9 is at
Monmouth looking west. #10 is at the east end of
the Mississippi River Bridge at
Burlington.
#11
is south of the depot at Burlington
looking geographically north. I would
bet that #14 is looking along the double track east
of Lincoln
near Havelock.
#15, #16, #17 are
probably taken at Havelock, maybe during a Director's trip? #18 and
#19 are taken in the Lincoln
yard. Particularly #18 is
looking east because you can see the capital
building lined up with the
hump lead.
I don't think #8 is on the CB&Q. I say that
because it looks like the
junction at Helena Jct. (looking SE) between the NP
double main between Helena
and Garrison and the GN single main between Helena and
Great Falls.
The one that had me stumped for a while is #20. I
believe it is at
the east end of the interlocking at Ashland, Nebraska,
looking east. The 2 track signal
bridge is definitely a standard CB&Q 2-track, Warren
truss style signal bridge, plan
39005. If Ashland is
correct, then
the signal bridge is No. 34.97. The track to the
left
that does not go under the signal bridge is the Sioux
City line. Just beyond the
signal bridge, you can see a curve to the left which
is curve 46A on the line
to Omaha.
The track on the right
is the Louisville
line.
