The way I see it is ANY interest in history is valid, useful and necessary. If 
history isn't appreciated it will be lost. I was an employee but that doesn't 
make my posts any more interesting or useful than anyone else's. The thing I 
appreciate about this list is the variety of things I see here. Some I skip 
over, some I respond to - but all of them add in some way to the base of 
knowledge that must be preserved.

     And I am a railfan, but not a modeler.  There might be others like me.
 In addition to the "Q" specific discussions (Chicago to the Twin Cities being 
my interest), I enjoy reading about life on the railroad from years back, 
regardless of the specific road or location.

   All,
 I hesitate to answer this as the thread has turned into an employee 
discussion, but My 2 student trips were in 1962 and 1963.  Both from Casper WY 
to Cheyenne, WY. Natrona County High School had a train trip to the football 
game in Cheyenne.  1962 we had a steam engine with heavy weight cars The train 
hit a pickup in Douglas WY at a crossing no dead and did not hurt the engine.  
1963 a diesel E units heavyweights and no accident.
 I apologize to the employees for taking your band width.
