It also depends on the era, as new plants came on line in the 60's and later as the Govt privatized the He supply. John Barry ATSF North Bay Lines Golden Gates & Fast Freights 707-490-9696 3450 Palmer Drive, Suite 4224 Cameron Park, CA 95682

Helium cars were loaded at, I believe, Hugoton, Kansas, on the Cimarron Valley District. I do remember seeing empty cars at Boise City waiting to go back for loading in 1977-78 when I was working on the Colorado Division. Cordially, John Hodson John, they were also loaded at Amarillo (Rock Island) and Excel
(AT&SF), TX. Probably a number of other places where helium was
abundant. Jerry Michels
