CB&Q E8 9947A
Title:  CB&Q E8 9947A
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9947A and UP E9 951 at Union Station, Chicago, Illinois on October 17, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 9947A was built as CB&Q E8 9947A in August 1950 (c/n 11701) on EMD Order 2023A. It became BN 9947 on March 2, 1970 and on August 1, 1972 it became Amtrak 341. It is seen here in charge of Train #25, the North Coast Limited. departing Union Station at 12:20 PM. The times quoted here are Central Standard time, as published in timetables. It's about 1:20 locally. The train will be turned over to the Northern Pacific at 7:05 PM at Saint Paul, MN, 427 miles from this point. Union Pacific 951 was built in June 1955 (c/n 20488) on EMD Order 2070A, and went on to become on of the UP's Heritage Fleet of preserved diesels. It is seen here at the south throat of Union Station, somewhat out of place. The Union Pacific's trains in and out of Chicago were handled by the Milwaukee Road, the only tenant on the north side of Union Station. A possible explanation for this rare appearance of a UP train on the south side might be a derailment blocking the Milwaukee's main line, forcing the MILW to use CB&Q tracks around the problem.

UP E9 951
Title:  UP E9 951
Description:  Union Pacific Railroad E9 951 on the south leads to Union Station in Chicago, Illinois on October 17, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This power would normally be on the Milwaukee Road ( north ) side of Union Station. Perhaps there was track problems on the Milwaukee on this date. Number 951 went to the UP Heritage Fleet, but when pictured here it still had two prime movers as EMD intended. It has since been fitted with a single 16-645E, making it ( effectively ) a GP38-2.

UP (<I>PREAMBLE EXPRESS</I>) E9A 951
Title:  UP (PREAMBLE EXPRESS) E9A 951
Description:  Union Pacific E9A 951 was parked at the New Orleans Union Passenger Terminal sand tower while visiting on the PREAMBLE EXPRESS. The 951 had been built in May 1955 and was one of eight E-units retained by the UP after the advent of Amtrak in 1971. It was repainted into this scheme by EMD at La Grange in June 1974 and was used to pull the special train between August and November 1974. The train arrived at NOUPT on the Illinois Central Gulf on 3 October and left on the Southern on the 7th. The loco was returned to UP in December 1974 and was repainted into UP colors in August 1977.
