CB&Q E7 9926B
Title:  CB&Q E7 9926B
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9926B westbound on Train 11, the Nebraska Zephyr, at Naperville, Illinois on April 1, 1964, Ektachrome Chuck Zeiler. Please forgive the motion blur. I was 16 at the time of this photo and had yet to learn that slow shutter speeds and fast moving trains do not get along. Note the MOW setout on the right side of Track 1.

CB&Q E7 9926B
Title:  CB&Q E7 9926B
Description:  CB&Q E7 9926B westbound on Train #11, the Nebraska Zephyr at Naperville, Illinois on July 10, 1965, photo by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in September 1947 (c/n 4434) on EMD Order E792A, became BN 9926 on March 2, 1970, and was sold for scrap to Precision June 14, 1971. Although some of the E7's were retro-fitted with stainless steel side panels, records indicate this unit never received them. It is seen here with the as-delivered side panels painted aluminum. This unit did have the louvered door behind the cab door replaced with a sheet metal door. On some E7's this louvered door was found to be unnecessary, although the door access was still used to change out the main air reservoirs, which were located immediately behind the cab bulkhead.
