| Bob Campbell sent the following message to me, yesterday. Robert E. Taylor, the last Chief Mechanical Officer on the Q, passed away on May 11, 2020 at the age of 98. He continued in that capacity on the BN and was later promoted to Vice President - Mechanical, I believe, and remained in the position until he retired in the late 1980s or early 1990s. I had the pleasure of meeting Bob on several occasions in my capacity as EMD Account Manager on the BN. He has to be among the last surviving officers from the CB&Q. I last met him casually in a store in Overland Park, KS, probably in the early 2000s. He was a quiet and pleasant gentleman.

Bill -
I'm pretty sure you knew Bob Taylor. This is FYI.
