Re: [CBQ] All Time Fan Trip List-Steam trip to the Sandwich Fair

Thanks Bill, 
Yes the BRHS archive has photos of the 5632 trip including the wyeing at 
Earlville. One of the many times that the suburban gallery cars were used west 
of Aurora.

Interestingly at least for some period of time the empty eastbound train was 
held right on main 1 just west of the Somonauk plant waiting for loading time 
at Sandwich.
