Burlington Northern Railroad GP30 2246 and a friendly employee at Clyde, Illinois on an unknown day in January 1981, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Also seen are two unmarked GP38-2's, fresh from EMD, to be delivered by the BN. Although there were no markings, the build date and color match Curtis Milburn & Eastern (CMER), so I listed the 818 as such.
