Erik,
The link to the Trainorders post did not come through
and I'm not a member of Trainorders, so I cannot see it. In the research
I've done on the Mark Twain Zephyr, I have found nothing that would
indicate it every visited Topeka, KS. I've checked CB&Q correspondence
for the exhibition tour of the 9900 from May 29th to June 12th, and Topeka
is not on that agenda either. Is there anyway that a low-res copy of the
slide could be shared for location identification.
Here is a link to a history of the Mark Twain
Zephyr on the BRHS web site:
