Rupert,

The Burlington Passenger Timetable issued April 27, 1969 showed the following (hopefully the formatting carries through):

Read Down Mls. Table No. 7 Read Up
Train 41 Train 42
AM Mountain Time PM
7.55 0 Lv.   Alliance, Nebr    Ar. 9.25
8.20 19 Hemmingford 8.54
8.40 35 Marsland 8.36
    Horseshoe Curve  
9.24 57 Crawford 8.00
9.55 84 Ardmore, S. Dak. 7.23
10.14 101 Provo 7.03
10.30 110 Ar.     Edgemont         Lv. 6.50

No checked baggage at Marsland, Ardmore and Provo. No checked baggage on Train 42 to or from Hemingford. A stop at Ardmore required notification at Crawford westbound and Edgemont eastbound.

My thanks to all who replied, and for the story about it. Does anyone have a timetable for that period who can advise if Belmont and Marsland (between Hemingford and Crawford) were still shown at that time?

The incident where the westbound train was stopped at Hemingford and the passengers bused to their destinations occurred on August 14, 1969.  After public outcry over this, a court ordered that the trains be kept in operation for an additional ten days, so the last runs took place August 24, 1969.

If you are looking for the exact date be careful. I think the CB&Q stopped the last westbound #43 at Hemingford, NE (between Alliance and Crawford) when the train-off petition was granted and went into effect. Therefore that train never made it to Crawford on the "last day" that #43 departed Alliance. I don't know if the eastbound train #42 went thru Crawford before the petition was granted or not? But if not, then the "last day" for passenger train service at Crawford was actually one day earlier than train-off.
