You have it, q1.Union(q2). The Union is in the System.Linq namespace with Queryable.

You can try the Concat Method

Something like this

int[] i1 = new int[] { 1, 2, 3 };
int[] i2 = new int[] { 3, 4 };
//returns 5 values
var i3 = i1.AsQueryable().Concat(i2.AsQueryable());
//returns 4 values
var i4 = i1.AsQueryable().Union(i2.AsQueryable());

Union will only give you the DISTINCT values, Concat will give you the UNION ALL.

(q1.Union(q2)).AsQuerable()
