CB&Q F3 125D westbound at Naperville, Illinois on November 15, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built as the trailing cab unit of CB&Q motor (CB&Q term for locomotive) 125, built as an A-B-B-A set of F3's drawbar connected to form a single locomotive, built in May 1948 (c/n 5881) on EMD Order E957A (the B-units were built on EMD Order E957B), and the pictured unit was sold for scrap to Precision Enginering during November 1965. Not my best photo, and I almost didn't bother with it, except it is an historical record of this locomotive in its duties. |
