In the Baggage Car Behind CB&Q 4960
Author: MartyBernard

Second best to being in the cab was the baggage car right behind the tender. This photo is before 4960 had an auxiliary tender for additional water. I took this in Ottawa, IL on June 10, 1963.


Enjoy,
Marty Bernard

YES, and you got some "stack music" to as my late friend L. E. Stagner used to say.

When was the last time you saw flashers in service on a non-paved street?
Not too often, I'd bet.

I can think of at least four gravel township roads that cross the BNSF's Aurora Sub where the crossings are protected with flashers and gates.
