Gerald I was not aware that the TAbor Northern was ever absorbed by the Q???? Their engine house stood at Tabor until perhaps about the late 1970's or early 80's. I used to see it every time we would

I'll attempt an answer strictly from memory...I don'thave an old TT to refer to. The Coloradoan No. 19wB and 6 EB was basically a mail and express train with a coach or two.. I think No. 19 left Chic
Bob, John and list RE: number of copies....I wonder if the number of copies handed up varied from division to Division on theQ...I don't see how it would, but I distinctly remember that on the St. Jo

John I'm sure you're right about the old guys resisting the use of the typewriter, but I think that it took a special provision in the rules to allow the use of the typewriter. The old ops had a beau
Listers I asked Tom to send me his "one min;ute" sample and prices...He did...The sample is excellent and quite authentic sounding. I sent an order off last evening...You get 4 CD's, Tom sez about 5
