Re: [CBQ] Aurora-Chicago Milk Train

["William Joyce via Groups.Io" <wbjoyce=yahoo.com@groups.io>]

Leo,

Thanks very much for the informative article on CB&Q milk runs.  Need to read it more thoroughly when I have more time.  For now, here are a few items that may interest you.  The first is a listing of CB&Q milk shipping sites going back to June 1866.  The other two are photos of milk depots, said to be Lisle and Greggs/Westmont, that I've been trying to date and authenticate.

Bill,

If, after reading the article you still have questions let me know as I have material that didn't make it into the article on the subject of milk on what Burlington employees referred to as the "east end"

Thanks very much for your reply to my request about the Aurora-Chicago milk train.  I'm going to order your Bulletin 51.  FYI: my specific focus is Westmont Station, previously Greggs and originally Bushville, or Bush Station.  Bill Joyce
