[CBQ] CB&Q Potash Trains

["Tom Mack via groups.io" <thommack=yahoo.com@groups.io>]

I just viewed Leo's clinic at the Mendota meet about Mendota and he mentions the potash trains that ended up in Mendota. While I have been aware of these for years, and actually put together enough cars in my collection for a unit train for my layout (there were only three types of covered hoppers in the IMCX fleet used for these trains, and two types are available properly lettered in HO), I have yet to see a photo of one of these trains on the Q. The trains originated on the GN and there are some so-so photos in an early BN Annual of trains on the GN/BN. Has anyone seen or run across a photo of a potash train on the Q? I'm hoping something new may have turned up.
