Ken,
Very interesting. I was not aware that any locomotives or waycars had escaped being repainted or renumbered that far into the BN era. I think we have all seen photos of box cars and other freight equipment that remained in CB&Q colors (Mike Spoor's CB&Q Color Guide) until being donated, sold or scrapped. I recall seeing and photographing a few CB&Q and C&S 40' boxcars being scrapped in Chicago in the 80's by Metron Steel along with a friend and fellow CB&Q modeler Rob Manley.
Thanks, Dave Sarther Tucson, AZ

I saw 14151 in Denver in August 1976. It was still painted red and still numbered 14151.

Does anyone have a photo of #14151 in BN green as #11030 that they would be willing to share with the group? That would complete the cycle. Does anyone know if the waycar still exists? Where? __._,_.___ Posted by: "sartherdj@aol.com" <sartherdj@aol.com> __,_._,___ |
