Scott,
I’m glad you enjoyed the presentation and I do appreciate your kind words. I looked at the Burlington Route membership roster and believe I found you listed. Thanks for your support. I encourage everyone to support the railroad clubs and historical societies. These organizations are totally volunteer with no renumeration of any kind for those keeping things happening.
To all, please consider joining or at the least shopping on the web sites of your favorite railroad society. The funds make programs available.
If too many ride the rods,like the hobos of old then programs will become rare.

I no longer live in the Chicago area, and enjoyed watching this presentation using Zoom (and noticed a number of others did also). Very well researched, Leo. Looking forward to more of these involving the CB&Q.

Our next meeting will be both an in-person meeting and a Zoom meeting. If enough people from outside the Chicago area attending Zoom meetings become Club members, this will encourage the Club to make hybrid meetings a permanent feature. Dues are $20 which includes four glossy newsletters sent by mail. The dues renewal is sent with the fourth newsletter. We still have slide shows which will not be presented via Zoom.
