CB&Q GE 44 Ton 9105
Title:  CB&Q GE 44 Ton 9105
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad GE 44 Ton 9105 at Kewanee, Illinois on March 17, 1963, photographer unknown, duplicate slide by Al Chione, Chuck Zeiler collection. The following is excerpted from Burlington Route Historical Society Bulletin Number 6, CENTER-CABS, edited by Hol Wagner.

Number 9105 was built in February 1941 ( c/n 12950 ) and along with 9104, 9106, and 9107, were the first Burlington center-cabs to come from the builder in the "new" paint scheme of black and gray with red and yellow striping. The little GE's held down switching and branch line assignments in eastern Nebraska, central Illinois, and all through Iowa. Reassignments were common. The 9104 later worked several assignments in Illinois, withdrwan from service nd stored at Galesburg during 1969. Road number BN 2 was applied in July 1970, then sold for scrap in November to Precision National Corporation.

CB&Q GE 44 Ton 9105
Title:  CB&Q GE 44 Ton 9105
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad GE 44 Ton 9105 at Kewanee, Illinois on August 20, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This was a grab shot from a passing steam excursion. I was either hanging out of a baggage car door or one of the many open vestibule dutch doors. I almost threw this slide out, but changed my mind, thinking it might be handy some day. How do I know it was 9105? I don't from the image, that's what wrote on the slide mount, so I'm sticking with it. Number 9105 was built by GE in February 1941 ( c/n 12950 ) assigned to Kewanee in its third and final decade of service, later it became BN 2, but never worked for the BN.
