Many of my relatives attended the Coldbrook Church and on the other side of the family my Grandfather Lee Guenther(engineer) and Uncle Vern German(engineer) and Uncle Troy Roach(conductor) all worked for the CB&Q.

Wonderful pictures! I wasn't born until five years after these were taken, but I grew up in and around Galesburg, including the Coldbrook area, and have wonderful memories of the trains. Galesburg is why I love trains.
