RBBQ Class RBL-5 77178 |
| Description: |
RBBQ Class RBL-5 77178 at Cicero, Illinois on an unknown day in May 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This was one of 150 cars built during July and August 1967 by the CB&Q shops in Havelock, Nebraska, road numbers 77100 - 77249. The differed from the previous batch of RBL class cars in the improved door handle on the Camel plug door, and the lack of roofwalks and full height ladders to reach the roof. The ICC banned the roofwalk and associated ladders on new cars built after January 1, 1967. As a result, the new cars' handbrakes were also positioned low on the end of the car. The herald was also positioned slightly different between the two series of cars. |

RBBQ 78052 |
| Description: |
RBBQ 78052 at Clyde, Illinois on an unknown day in May 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The following is from Burlington Bulletin No. 12, REEFERS, edited by Hol Wagner: All insulated boxcars produced after 1963 were both owned and operated by either the CB&Q or the C&S. Cars built after 1963 carried RBBQ or RBCS reporting marks and were lettered BURLINGTON in the yellow band rather than BURLINGTON REFRIGERATOR EXPRESS. RBBQ 78000 - 78299 were turned out by Havelock ( CB&Q shops in Nebraska ) between November 1964 and September 1965. These cars took full advantage of the efficiency and light weight of urethane foam insulation; they were 60 feet long inside and had a capacity of 155,000 pounds. And because the foam was so efficient, thinner sidewalls were possible, so all the RBL's ( and mechanical reefers ) built at Havelock after mid-1963 were outside braced. All 300 had cushion underframes - National 3-C gliding sills for the first 290 cars and Miner M-20 hydraulic cushion underframes for the last 10. Only these last 10 cars, 78290 - 78299, carried HYDRAULIC CUSHIONING lettering on the yellow band; the other 290 cars had no lettering in this space. The last 10 also featured a different style plug door than the other cars. Interestingly though, all 300 cars had the same load-securing equipment inside: Equipco one- and two-piece load dividers, Evans six-position side fillers, and Landreth liner panels on ends, doors, ceiling, and portions of the sides. Cars 78000 - 78099 were assigned to Coors beer service, and the beginning of a massive shift back to rail transport by one of the nation's largest brewers was under way. |

RBBQ 79839 |
| Description: |
RBBQ 79839 at Cicero, Illinois on an unknown day in May 1981, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The following is excerpted from Burlington Bulletin No. 12, REEFERS, edited by Hol Wagner: While the CB&Q shops in Havelock, Nebraska were building 300 60-foot insulated boxcars ( 78000 - 78299 number series ) during 1964-65, the shops also built 100 similar 50-foor cars, numbered RBBQ 79800 - 79899. These cars, turned out in January and February 1965, had Keystone cushion underframes ( and HYDRAULIC CUSHIONING lettering ), ASF ride control trucks, and Ellcon load dividers, Evans six-position side fillers, and laminated wood floors. Like the RBBX series 79550 - 79799, these cars had their 10-foot wide plug door positioned slightly off-center to the right on each side. The wide, off-center door, coupled with the comparatively short length of the car, and the fact that the door opened to the shorter end of the car, led to an unusual feature on these cars; the door stop had to be positioned right in the lower center of the Burlington Route herald. |
