C&NW E8 509 |
| Description: |
Chicago & North Western Railway Business Car 403 and E8 509 near Canal Street in Chicago, Illinois on May 25, 1982, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The train below had just cut off the Circus World Museum's historic circus train which it brought to Chicago from Baraboo, Wisconsin. The vintage circus wagons will be unloaded and paraded down Michigan Avenue. This is a good example of Stagecoach Yellow seen on 509 above, and what became known as Zito Yellow (actually, Pantone 102C) on 403 below, so named for the Vice President-Operations at the time, Jim Zito. Under his directive during the early 1980's, and with concern for improved visibility, it became the new C&NW yellow paint. |
