Nostalgia & History > WAG Wednesday: KCKV in the snow!

Here are a couple of images that just didn’t make the cut back in 2011. Start with this link: ( https://www.trainorders.com/discussion/read.php?11,2613557,2613557#msg-2613557 ), then go “Back to Thread List” and work your way forward. There are 6 total parts, including this prologue…

1. KCKV 507 apparently being used in snow service. Bill’s slide notes: “…clearing show at the Stewart Sand Co. Rd.”

2. …more of Bill’s slide notes: “A winter wonderland!”
Two photos taken in Kansas City, KS on February 22, 1960 by William A. Gibson (WAG) Sr.

Thanks for looking back!

Beautiful pictures.  Almost makes me miss snow.

Was this one of the units that went to the Iowa Terminal, now Traction?  Just curious.

This unit became #50 on the Iowa Traction from a Google search.

Excellent stuff, makes the subscription worthwhile.

Wowza!
