Re: [CBQ] Way car CBQ14699

["Chris Atkins" <tcatkins@gmail.com>]

According to this Friends of the BN page, the caboose that is identified as CBQ14699 was BN10872, which was NP1668.

Perhaps not as gross of an injustice as the weighcar on display in Red Lodge, MT but I wonder why it was misidentified in the first place?

Multiple sources on the web have this incorrect then. I will remove it from our list. The photo I looked at of 14691 was deceivingly similar and only a partial view.

NP not Q.   Roof radius is too high, smokejack round, cupola wrong, only two side windows, wrong trucks, end platform completely different from Q practice.

Worst, it is a caboose and not a waycar!

This is the caboose displayed next to the Stonefield Village Depot at Governor Nelson Dewey State Park near Cassville, WI:

It doesn't look like a Q waycar to me.  More like a former Northern Pacific car:
