Re: [CBQ] CB&Q Set of the Barriger Collection

[Leo <qutlx1@aol.com>]

Here are a couple more I.D. s

276 is indeed the 14 th st coach yr,in particular it is 'B' yard looking south

That's the Pennsy 21st bridge in the background. That's the BOCT AND air line 
bridges in middle background. Photo looks to be reversed.

72 and 73 are scenes between Western Ave and Cicero.
