Re: [CBQ] Chicago Switching books, was Industry and Warehouse Questions

Hello,

For those who may not know here is the web page link to the books. http://railsunlimited.ribbonrail.com/Books/shippers.html

The books are about midway down the page. One time at a show I had a man, who worked in a south side steel mill traffic department, and he related that he used the tariff book every day in his job.

The 1967 version shows an expanded Chicago terminal district. If you look at the 1956 one (offered by Ted Schnepf) and the 1959 one (which was offered by the BRHS archives), you see some of the outer suburbs were not part of the terminal district (like Naperville). It would be interesting to know how, why and when this changed.

Wow!!!  Amazed at the number of industries still on the CB&Q in 1967!!!!

It is especially readable when you sort by the Terminal Carrier’s District column.
