[CBQ] eBay Item

["Hol Wagner holpennywagner@msn.com [CBQ]" <CBQ@yahoogroups.com>]

There's an interesting item for sale on eBay right now that clearly demonstrates how generally the line down the west side of the Mississippi between Burlington and St. Louis was known as the K Line.  The item on eBay is a promotional ashtray of the Klein Manufacturing Co. of Burlington, which marketed its hog feeders under the trade name K-Line, a play on words that also helped people correctly pronounce the company name:
