MILW E7 19B |
| Description: |
Milwaukee Road E7 19B on the north side of Union Station in Chicago, Illinois on February 27, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in June 1946 (c/n 3242), classed as 20-EP on the Milwaukee Road, and traded to EMD for new power in late 1968 or early 1969. Photos of trains at this location would not heve been possible a year earlier or a year after this photo date. Previously the tracks and platforms were covered with a trainshed completed in 1925. The shed was in the process of being removed to allow construction of glass and steel high rise office buildings to be built on the air rights over the tracks. |

MILW E7 19B |
| Description: |
Milwaukee Road E7 19B at Union Staion in Chicago, Illinois on February 27, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in June 1946 (c/n 3242) on EMD Order E664A, MILW class 20-EP, it was traded to EMD for new power in 1968. It is seen here in charge of the daily un-named Train #23, departing Chicago at 3:20PM CST, arriving in Milwaukee at 4:45PM, making only one stop enroute at Glenview. This view also shows the preliminary demolition of the concourse of Union Station to make room for glass and steel office buildings on the air rights over the tracks. The first step was to remove the north side train sheds over the Milwaukee Road tracks, the only tenant on the north side of Union Station. This exposed waiting Milwaukee Road trains to both the elements and daylight for the first time since the station was completed in 1925. |

MILW E9 35A |
| Description: |
Milwaukee Road E9 35A at Union Station in Chicago, Illinois on February 27, 1966, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Built in May 1956 as 205A (c/n 21611) on EMD Order 2075A, it was renumbered 35A and eventually became Amtrak 409 (First). It is seen here loading passengers as demolition of Union Station continues. The first part was the removal of the train sheds on the north side, exposing the Milwaukee trains to the elements for the first time since the station was completed in 1925. The next step is the removal of everything above street level to make room for glass and steel office buildings on the air rights. |

MILW E9 36C |
| Description: |
The Milwaukee Road E9 36C at Union Station in Chicago, Illinois on February 27, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in April 1961 (c/n 26566) on EMD Order 7596A. It is seen at Union Station in Chicago as the demolition of everything above street level continues. The first step was the removal of the train sheds over the Milwaukee Road's tracks which allowed (briefly) photos of trains in daylight. This will be covered over shortly by office buildings built on the air rights. |

MILW E9 37A |
| Description: |
The Milwaukee Road E9 37A at Union Station in Chicago, Illinois on June 29, 1966, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Built in April 1961 (c/n 26567) on EMD Order 7596A, class 24-EP on the MILW, one source has it going to the Regional Transit Authority (RTA) as 37A, and it now resides at the Illinois Railway Museum. This is not the original platform lighting for Union Station, these are bare bulb work lights. At the time of this photo, the station and north platforms sheds were in the process of being torn down in preparation for construction of glass and steel office buildings over the air rights. |

The shed had been removed in preparation for the construction of a high rise office building to be built on the air rights over the tracks. |
