In the early ads the 260 wears its delivery paint job, while later Q and subsidiary ditchers, like steam shovels, derricks and pile drivers, were painted black. Hol To: CBQ@yahoogroups.com From: kmar

Going back through my e-mails, I see that Ken Martin should be credited with finding one of the adverts I referred to. There is a similar photo to the second advert showing the dump car in the April

Rupert I don't believe the photo is a delivery photo. This is for three reasons. First the picture is a WPA photograph, made during the Depression years in the 30's many years after they were deliver

The location of this view is troublesome, as it is identified as being in Cherokee County, Kan., in May 1936. But Cherokee is the southeasternmost county in Kansas and the Q did not have trackage any

I thought about that, too, Hol, but maybe they were on loan to another railroad since, in service, they would be in between air dump cars. On Wednesday, March 12, 2014 7:22 AM, Hol Wagner <holpennywa

John The second photos shows that the ditcher is between two CB&Q dump cars and with a CB&Q way car on the end. If they were on loan, wouldn't the other company have supplied these cars? The location

Again, we're confusing the photos. The two early shots, taken by Erie and used in their ads, are on the Creston Division; the 1936 photo of 3-1/2 of the ditchers on flatcars in a row is identified as
