CB&Q GP20 919
Title:  CB&Q GP20 919
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad GP20 919 westbound at Naperville, Illinois, January 31, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in March 1961 (c/n 26590) on EMD Order 7597, it became BN 2055 and was retired and traded to EMD in July 1985. Parts of this locomotive were originally an EMD FT that had previously been traded back to EMD, remanufactured and used in the construction of this unit. It is seen here leading three UP GP30's and a CB&Q GP35 on the CGI (Chicago Grand Island) freight that was scheduled to depart Cicero at 10:30 AM every day. This train used pooled power from the UP and Burlington.
