Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad GP30 948 eastbound at Congress Park, Illinois on June 22, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The GP30 was built in May 1962 (c/n 27159), becoming BN 2225 sometime after the merger on March 2, 1970, and was rebuilt to GP39M 2931. Baldwin VO-1000 9354 was built in November 1943 (c/n 70105), and was traded in June 1965. It is seen here dead on the IHB setout track, and likely will move about two more miles to the Pielet Brothers (scrap yard) setout track, across from the EMD plant in McCook, Illinois, for final disposition. |
