Re: [CBQ] Observation Cars Purchased from SP&S

["Richard Wilkens" <railsnw123@comcast.net>]

Thanks Rupert.

I'm still thinking this has a few areas that need clarification.

CB&Q 220 "MISSISSIPPI"
Purchased from SP&S as the 570 and placed in service at CB&Q 220 in June 1934
Rebuilt as Buffet-Parlor-Observation CB&Q 340 in November 1934
Rebuilt as Chair Car CB&Q 4811 in ????? (Was this converted to a Chair Car at the same time as the 221?)
Restored back to ???? in February 1946 (Was this restored back to the 340?)
Rebuilt as Business Car "Round Up" in June 1953
What is the history of the car after this?

CB&Q 221 "RIVER VIEW"
Purchased from the SP&S as the 571 and placed in service as the CB&Q 221 "River View" in June 1934
Rebuilt as Chair Car CB&Q 4810 in May 1943
Restored back to Parlor Observation CB&Q 221 in February 1946
Placed in Maintenance of Way Service as CB&Q 250051 at Lincoln, NE in May 1967
What is the history of the car after this?

Thanks,

Richard Wilkens
