Re: [CBQ] Weed Sprayer Cars

["Don Winn via groups.io" <donswinn=gmail.com@groups.io>]

Thanks for all of your helpful responses about the weed sprayer car.   Ironically, a few hours after I posted this, I ran across the article in the current RMC magazine.

I checked out the BB and the Zephyr that were mentioned and they have some good information.  Jack would remind us all that the publication search feature on our website is really helpful (if only I had remembered that).  

Thanks again.

For those who don't know, NALX is Nalco Chemicals. The Nalco headquarters (or research campus) is located off of Illinois State Route 59 in Naperville, IL. I grew up close by and have passed that facility many many times when I was out with family when I was younger. It was on the way to Eola where the CB&Q (BN in my younger days) crossed under the EJ&E (now CN) and the site of Eola Yard.

 

I often wondered what Nalco specialized in until recently I figured out they were a chemical company.
