Re: [CBQ] Burlington and Missouri River Railroad in Nebraska

Louis,

The caption on the photo reads "said to be the first passenger train at Broken Bow".  So it is not positively identified as being at Broken Bow.  The photo could have been taken at Ashland and the locomotive later used on the passenger train into Broken Bow.  Would be interesting to see what you come up with for info.

Thanks,

Brian

Brian - Excuse the delay in answering back, but I've been out of town on business all week. To answer your question, "I do not know." The image came to me identified as Ashland, NE. You may have more accurate information than I do. May be Hol will know.... Over the holidays, I'll try and make time to take a closer look at when and where "Wauhoo" was photographed. Thanks and best regards - Louis

Louis,

Your photo of the "Wauhoo" brings up an interesting question.  I have been under the impression this photo was taken in Broken Bow, NE.  This link shows the same engine and states the photo was taken by Solomon Butcher in 1886 and said to be taken in Broken Bow.  This info may very well be wrong however.
