Amtrak E9 404
Title:  Amtrak E9 404
Description:  Amtrak E9 404 at the South Station in Boston, Massachusetts on an unknown day in April 1979, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 404 was built in December 1963 as SAL 3060 (c/n 28524) on EMD Order 7667 to replace a wrecked E8, later renumbered to SCL 599, later still becoming Amtrak 404. One source states that this unit was the first to receive the Platinum Mist paint scheme: "applied at Waycross Shop in early 1972". Another source states it was overhauled at the MILW Shops in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1974, likely the source of the pilot.
