This will not work. :)
Works perfectly for me:
$ echo "echo query 22 | bconsole" > fred.sh
$ chmod a+x fred.sh
$ ./fred.sh

Hello Gary,
Your method will not work for any queries that ask for input.
I have a custom query.sql, and option 22 in mine requires manual input because
it asks for a pool or volume name - or something, I can't recall in this moment.
Mine's custom as well, and in it query 22 is my little bit of SQL. :-)
This is what triggered my unwavering "this will not work" comment. :)
Although, I must admit, I didn't think the bconsole query command would accept
anything on the command line - I still learn something new every day I guess,
even after 20+ years of using Bacula. :)
Yep, all the time.
Cheers,
Gary B-)
