Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E9 9994 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on July 30, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. It is fortunate I had the presence of mind to mark the slide as "Girl Scout Special". I certainly would not have recalled that detail 40 years later. This locomotive was built in August 1954 (c/n 19633) on EMD Order 2065, became BN 9994 sometime after the March 2, 1970 merger, sold to the West Suburban Mass Transit District August 18, 1972, was rebuilt by Morrison Knudsen in May 1973, returning as 9924 and leased to the BN for operation. |
