CB&Q U25B 104 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad U25B 104 westbound at Mendota, Illinois on March 20, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in October 1964 (c/n 35198) it became BN 5428 and was retired in May 1981. It is seen here at the head of train CGI (Chicago - Grand Island), an expedited freight featuring CB&Q and UP pooled power, in this case, UP supplying most of the power with four GP30's, the first one is a GP30B. The occasion of this rather well documented move was a fuel stop for a steam fantrip powered by 2-8-2 4960, a round trip from Chicago to Zearing for $7.50. |
