Because the top quark has been observed'1'''2! only recently, and progress in Fer-milab Tevatron electroweak measurements has been comparably rapid, these lectures consist primarily of summaries of current experimental work. This is in contrast to the more pedagogical nature of much of the other material in these Proceedings. The initial lecture is devoted to the production and decay characteristics of the top quark. Analysis of the top quark mass is my particular interest, so I allocate two lectures to it, one to the dilepton channel, the other to the more widely discussed decay channels in which at least one W from top decays nonleptonically. The final lecture is devoted to measurement of the W mass.
