In the 1960s vast amounts of grain in solid trains (not unit trains because all the cars did not originate at a single point) moved through Denver from points east over the Q and continued south over the C&S-FW&D to the Port of Houston for export.  So the Q did operate many solid trainloads of covered hoppers in grain service
Thanks Hol. I'm guessing (hoping actually) that the Q may have assembled groups of loaded grain boxcars and covered hoppers at Savanna, IL which would have then been sent down to Galesburg either on Train 156 (Savanna to Galesburg via Denrock and Barstow per the 1968 Operating Data Sheet) or as an extra, and then on from Galesburg to Denver. Can anyone confirm this possibility during grain season? Pictures are also always welcome!!
