Thread-topic: [CBQ] Q bobber?

Charlie

[The 1904 equipment renumbering related primarily to incorporating all the equipment owned by the subsidiaries into a single numbering system, and included all standard gauge waycars being renumbered into the 14000-14999 number group. The renumbering was mostly completed by 1907.]

 

The first ORER showing the new listing of waycar numbers 14000-14999 was either August or September 1904, but research indicates that the allocation of new numbers for the 1904 renumbering was based on the equipment held as listed in the October 1903 ORER. (I presume that each of the subsidiaries submitted timely equipment lists to the Burlington’s General Office for submission to the ORER’s publisher.) Where equipment was destroyed after the lists were prepared, a gap would have been left in the sequence, rather than shuffling all the numbers along. There are no such sequence gaps in the 14925-14944 sequence allocated to NM-2’s, so it would seem that 315 was destroyed before the October 1903 ORER list was prepared.

Searching through the 1903 Railroad Gazette accident summaries, the only possible one reported was -

March 1st, Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, Stoddard Wis., a freight train ran into the rear of a preceding freight, wrecking the caboose and one car. The wreck took fire and was partly burnt up. The conductor was fatally injured.


Any idea when in 1903 they were built?

All-

It is amazing that a NM-1 survived.  As stated previously, the carbody was put on a jury-built frame and wheels, but is otherwise pretty much pristine comparing the photos to the shot of #300.

I have a “General Description of 20 Ft 4 Wheel Waycar Built at Aurora in 1903

It shows “20 Cars Nos. 304 to 323 Inclusive” so by the time of renumbering the 315 must have been destroyed (early).

A note says: “1917, Only 7 Cars in Service Same renumbered to 14927, 14929, 14933, 14939-42”

This does not account for the 1906 and 1907 built cars of which I do not have the General Description sheet.

Some research into the State Railroad Commission or State Laws will have to be done to see if the rapid decline in numbers was due to legislation or maybe agreements with the Brotherhoods….
