Kaw Valley Juice

Kansas City, Kaw Valley & Western Motor #505 rolls along the line, perhaps near Edwardsville with some nice looking NP and SP boxcars in tow.

 

According to Don's Depot ( donsdepot.donrossgroup.net/dr352.htm ), the "505 was built by Baldwin-Westinghouse in May,1921, #54748, as Northeast Oklahoma Ry 2. It was purchased in 1940 by Cedar Rapids & Iowa City as 57 and then sold to the KCKV as 505 in 1954. In 1963 it became Iowa Terminal Ry as 51."

 

Like the other slides in this collection, the mounts are stamped with the name "J.M. Canfield."
