Amtrak's United Aircraft "TurboTrain" rusts at Ivy City |
| Description: |
Early in 1978, while on a business trip to Washington, DC, CKF took this Tri-X Pan exposure from a northbound Amtrak. It is of a recently retired TurboTrain (#57). Originally ordered by Montreal Locomotive Works for Canadian National in 1966 (delivered 1971?), this was one of two train sets cobbled together of leftover CN sets in 1973 for Amtrak (to compliment the sets they already owned). It ran in Boston to New York service and was powered by United Aircraft (Sikorsky) gas-turbine engines. |

Amtrak E9 408 |
| Description: |
Amtrak E9 408 at Washington, DC on an unknown day in May 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 408 was built in February 1956 as Milwaukee Road E9 201C (c/n 21604) on EMD Order 2075, was renumbered by the MILW to 31C shortly after delivery. By 1971 it was sold to Amtrak, becoming AMTK 408. Apparanty it was treated to red lift rings, and the gentleman appears to be pondering that situation. |
