A fine museum piece is scrapped |
Description: |
GP7's don't come a dime a dozen anymore and this unit was originally a museum piece that ended up dying on the C&G a month after its hurried arrival then was left to rust and bake behind the roundhouse for almost 15 years until today. |

BN GP7 1588 |
Description: |
BN GP7 1588 southbound at North Aurora, Illinois on May 19, 1982, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. In the CB&Q days, this train was known as the 'Irish Mail' for reasons I do not know. It was the daily job between Eola and West Chicago using the original 1848 charter for ten miles of track for the CB&Q between those two towns. They pretty much had only one customer, General Mills in West Chicago, which must have pissed off the C&NW since it was their town. |

Burlington Northern Railroad F45 6606 and GP7 1589 at Clyde, Illinois on an unknown day in August 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The UP power seen in the background was along for the ride. The two SD40-2's had been picked up fresh from EMD at Congress Park and were being delivered to the UP, I suppose either at Council Bluffs or Omaha. Note orange funnel at the base of the sand tower, used for filling the F45's front sand bins. |

BN F45 6606 |
Description: |
Burlington Northern Railroad F45 6606 and GP7 1589 at Clyde, Illinois on an unknown day in August 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 6606 was getting sand, and a portion of that sand is going to the ground. The BN had provided a funnel to prevent this sort of thing, but the funnel suffered from a fatal design flaw; in order for the funnel to work properly, one had to actually use the funnel. This meant climbing down off the locomotive, retrieving the funnel, climbing back on the locomotive with funnel in hand, and placing the funnel in the fill hatch. As seen, that step was skipped. I'll bet these guys were screwing with the new guy. |
