Yes...I'll have to dig out my Waycar book and see what the picture shows and 
I'll get back to you on that one...Thanks for reminding me...I tend to "park" 
requests and then forget about them...


I'm "home alone" today and it's very cold here and I'm sitting by the fire 
right across from my bookshelves. so I'll get at this "directly"  as my 
grandmother used to say...Maybe even today.


Pete

Thanks for the update/clarification re Ong, NE.
 
Did my request for information about CB&Q waycar interior details get through 
to you?
 
 

"Pete,
 
I am building one of Glenn Guerra's fine O-Scale waycar kits to P:48 standards. 
 I am trying to do something of a representative interior based on photos from 
Randy Daniel's  Burlington Waycar Book.   I have two questions.
 
On pages 241 and 245 there are interior photos showing some flags in the rear 
corner, one red, one green and two white.   Were the white flags used to 
indicate an "extra" just like passenger trains?  Would they have been displayed 
off the rear porch of the waycar during operation? 
 
In a waycar cupola would the crew seats have faced in opposite directions 
during normal operation?  The seat on the engineer's side facing forward and 
the seat on the fireman's side facing to the rear?"
 
Thanks,  Dave Sarther

No doubt about it...This is, indeed, Ong...I passed this depot 12 times each 
week for 6 weeks in 1958...If you have Al Holck's  "Hub of Burlington Lines 
West photo on page 265 shows what it look like in 1966.


Believe it or not there was a full time Agent (5 days/week) on duty there in 
'58.  Agent's wife was a partner with another woman as proprietresses of the 
OWL CAFE at Schickley where we "dined" Monday-Wednesday and Friday evenings 
going west on the Fairmont-Hildreth Local

Could this possibly be the CB&Q depot in Ong, NE?  Looks similar to the one in 
Morrowville, KS.


Thanks,
Brian
