The photo of 221691 is a 1960 repaint lettering style in Gothic font. The original was Q Railroad Roman. Restorers will have to decide which font and lettering to use. Nelson Moyer From: CBQ@groups.i

There is a slightly better picture of the lettering on page 123 of Mike Spoor's CB&Q Color Guide to Freight and Passenger. That car (221561) does not have the Beet Service stenciling on it. Bill Hirt
