Burlington Business Car No. 96

Former Chapter Car

Our former chapter car, CB&Q Business Car #96 was built for the Chicago, Burlington & Northern in 1886. The car was then completely rebuilt in 1906 by the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy and used extensively as an executive car carrying railroad executives and their crew around the network. The car was sold in 1962 to the Intermountain Chapter and used as our chapter car until 1972 when it was placed on display at the Colorado Railroad Museum. In 2006 the Intermountain Chapter donated No. 96 to the Colorado Railroad Museum and it is used today as an event space for the museum.
