Does anyone have some comprehensive history for the BCR&N, and it's acquisition by the CRI&P? According to what I can find, BCR&N was leased by the RI on June 1, 1902. Then operated by the RI until absorbed on June 15, 1903. Was the BCR&N operated under it's own identity until absorption? Or as part of the RI? When did the BCR&N first fall under the influence of the RI? It must have been prior to being leased. Controlled by purchase of stock? If so, is there a date available for this happening? Boxcab E50
There was info on the RITS calendar for 2003 but I'm not sure if it was as comprehensive enough. I would look in their website and inquire on their BBS.
Just hoping for some information, as those questions noted above. I was a past member of RITS, and had asked there, but nobody had an answer. After I learn these answers, I would wish to find an expert on the CK&N....
