MILW 1992 |
| Description: |
On the WGN at Trego is this faux Milwaukee Road caboose. The Milwaukee Road had a handful of International extended vision cars which were built to BN specs in 1976 for coal train service, but compared to those cars, on this car the number is wrong, the air reservoir is in the wrong place and the end windows in the cupola are the wrong shape. I am 99% certain that this is a former Soo Line car, which is supported by the 9/66 build date and "SOO" lettering on the COT&S label. |

Mark Twain Zephyr |
| Description: |
By sheer luck, we stumbled upon the former Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Mark Twain Zephyr strung out along the side of US 53 near Trego, WI. We did a sudden turn in to investigate what we were seeing. Strung out on blocks were the five cars that now make up the Mark Twain Zephyr. |

CBQ AA #9903 - Injun Joe" |
| Description: |
Built for the CB&Q in 1935, this EMC engine and cars in the Mark Twain Zephyr have led a colorful and sometimes neglected life. The train set bounced from one private owner to another until Greg Vreeland of the Wisconsin Great Northen tourist train purchased it on February 19, 2020 with major plans to restore it to running service. And he is making good on the dream!!! |

CBQ AA #9903 - Injun Joe" |
| Description: |
The power unit, "Injun Joe", was part of a fixed articulated train that originally ran between St Louis, MO and Burlington, IA. However, it was used on several CB&Q routes until retirement in April of 1958. The Budd Company designed and built the streamlined, articulated set originally containing four cars carrying names from Mark Twain's writings. This car was powered by a 660 hp, 8-cylinder, 2-cycle Winton 201A Diesel engine designed by General Motors, and built by the Winton Engine Division of Electro Motive Corporation. It ran on ordinary fuel oil and operated with no spark plugs or ignition system, combustion being accomplished solely through high compression. The engine directly powered a General Electric GT-534 main generator, which provided current to two, GE model 716 traction motors mounted on the first truck. The lead truck had 36-inch wheels for traction, while all the others only had 30-inch wheels. The gear ratio of the power truck was 52:25 for a rated maximum speed of 117 miles per hour. |

CBQ AA #9903 - Injun Joe" |
| Description: |
The power car, "Injun Joe", has been cleared of the older prime mover with necessary changes made to hold a new prime mover. Everything is going to plan. On September 12, 2023, the shovel nosed stainless steel power unit was placed back on its trucks. This was a banner day for the restoration project. Wish we had visited there just a little later than we did just so we could see the trucks in place! |

CBQ Buffet/lounge #500 - "Effie Dean" |
| Description: |
The buffet/lounge car "Effie Dean" has no connection to the original Mark Twain Zephyr but instead was part of the Pioneer Zephyr and had no name. Through a weird twist of fate when the Pioneer Zephyr was donated to the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry, they only had room for 3 of the 4 cars. Hence, this car was abandoned. It was eventually sold off with the four original cars of the Mark Twain Zephyr. Now it has become part of that trainset in Wisconsin! |

CBQ Dinette #551 - "Huckleberry Finn" |
| Description: |
The third car in the original Mark Twain Zephyr was the dineete/kitchen car, "Huckleberry Finn". It once held 16 seats in groups of 4, a service counter and a kitchen/pantry/steam generator. This will be transformed into a walk-through, full service dining car under the massive renovations taking place at the Wisconsin Great Northern yard. |
