Re: [CBQ] CB&Q Barriger Photos, CONSOLIDATED INDEX

[archie hayden <klinerarch@charter.net>]

Ken and all,  One aspect of the various photos was that many were shot  
in succession as a rule on which ever trip Mr Barringer was on.  Not  
always but many times and as the K Line shots show some were  
southbound and some were northbound so he photographed coming and  
going.  Archie   PS  Did anyone catch the rock garden art on #144 at  
the foot of Broadway in Hannibal?  Did you notice the letters "HUD"  
just beside the auto?  Hannibal Union Depot.  Also pictured is the  
Wabash Freight House left side and the crossing guard shanty the  
Wabash manned behind the auto.  Rear coach has just trailed through  
the riverfront park as the train is heading into the HUD.  This same  
park was selected by Mr Murphy for the new union depot the company  
wanted to build in the late 40s.  City fathers turned him down account  
they may have to expand the power plant you see in the back right.   
Never happened and that entire plant is a parkinging lot now.  This  
site was perfect account it lay between the Wabash main and the K Line  
main.  No more head in and back out movements.  Alas it didn't matter,  
no more passenger trains  Archie
