And there was one on the Q mainline east of Dener at Hudson, still there into the 1980s.

There were at least two pickle operations in Fort Collins. On the C&S there was the Dreher Pickle Company, located a little bit east of downtown. Closer to downtown Libby's had a pickle salting
station on the UP near the UP depot. Libby's also had a salting station in Loveland on the C&S. Heinz had one in Windsor, also on the C&S. Kuner-Empson also had one on the C&S somewhere between Fort Collins and Greeley as I understand it, but I have not been
able to locate exactly where. Stokely-Van Camp bought that one at some point. I know nothing about the C&S south of Denver, but I understand there were at least a few pickle stations down that way.

First the Burlington Bulletin no. 68 has an article on the Congress Park train wreck in 1918 showing a wrecked pickle car. And then the BRHS calendar for January has a train passing pickle vats at Fort Collins, Colorado.
I have always had a fascination with pickle cars. I can't imagine how many pickles one of those cars held. Good eating!
I showed the calendar picture to my brother he said it had to be a mistake, that those vats must be oil tanks. He couldn't believed they grew pickles in Fort Collins. I said we live in Powell, Wyoming on the CB&Q Cody branch line and that I planted just a few cucumber plants and got 40 quart jars of pickles. Cucumber plants are like zucchini, you have to be careful about number you plants you plant or you will had an explosion!
Anyway, to my question, does anyone have more information on the pickle operation around Fort Collins?
Thanks, David
