CB&Q E8 9945A
Description:
A pause in shoveling as Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9945A departs westbound on the middle track at Naperville, Illinois on January 25, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. A fortuitous click of the shutter if ever there was one. In the right background is the station agent at Naperville wheeling the two-wheel baggage cart across the tracks after loading from the power baggage car, a job I was permitted to do when business demanded. I was a paperboy at the time of the photo and Sunday supplements often arrived by train. On a busy day, I got to do the job.

CB&Q E8 9945A
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9945A eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on February 25, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The building on the left was the Naperville News Agency, my source of employment as a newspaper boy in my early teen years. You may notice steam at the front of the locomotive. One of the principles of steam heat was that the steam eventually condensed back into water. Generally, the steam valves at either end of the train were cracked open slightly to let that water escape.

No extra charge for my self-portrait.

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9948A eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on May 27, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The power car (next to the locomotive, which contains a diesel-generator set for car lighting) was typically on the other end (west end) to keep the noise an fumes away form passengers boarding in Union Station. For some unexplained reason, it has been turned and is on the east end.

This turntable was located adjacent to the depot in Aurora specifically to turn locomotives assigned to the Dinkys (commuter trains). By the date of this photo, the turntable would soon no longer be needed as the push-pull cab cars were arriving on the Burlington.

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9948B westbound at Naperville, Illinois on November 12, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in September 1950 (c/n 11704) on EMD Order 2023A, became BN 9954 sometime after March 2, 1970, was sold to Amtrak August 1, 1972 becoming 347, was retired May 28, 1975 and sold for scrap to Naporano Iron and Metal Company, Newark, New Jersey. The E8's in this order were equipped with fabricated grills covering the carbody air intakes (just below the roof and above the porthole windows), and painted side panels. Many CB&Q E7's and E8's were retro-fitted with stainless steel panels during shopping. This particular E8 retained its painted panels to the end.

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9949 at Denver, Colorado on August 20, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler Built in September 1947 (c/n 4501) on EMD Order E792A, it became BN 9925 and was retired in September 1970. This unit is the only E7 on the CB&Q roster that did not have a suffix letter. There was only one other single E7 (9937A), all the other E7's were ordered in pairs. Also, the first E8 was numbered 9937B, and there was a single E8 numbered 9949A. I cannot explain why this unit was not numbered 9937B.

CB&Q E8 9949A
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9949A westbound a little east of Naperville, Illinois on April 27, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Golf anyone? About two to three miles behind this location was the station at Lisle, and there was about ten miles to the next station at Npaerville. So this was generally a location where the hogger could haul back on the throttle and see what the locomotive could do. Just after Naperville was another ten miles or so to Aurora where the same test was possible sometimes at three digit speed.

CB&Q E7 9949
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9949 on a westbound Dinky at Naperville, Illinois on April 28, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in September 1947 (c/n 4501) on EMD Order E792A, it became BN 9925 sometime after the March 2, 1970 merger and was traded to EMD on an order for SD45's September 14, 1970. This particular unit is numbered above the rest of the E7's, which were numbered 9916A-B through 9937A, and in A-B pairs except for the last unit, 9937A. Logic would seem to have this unit numbered 9937B, but 9937B turned out to be the first E8. To further confuse the issue, there was a single E8 numbered 9949A, with the first couple of E8 orders numbered 9937B, 9938A-B through 9948A-B, and 9949A. So far, I can find no explanation for this sequence anomaly.

Built in September 1947 (c/n 4501) on EMD Order E792A, it became BN 9925 and was retired in September 1970. It is seen here on an eastbound Dinky, with the power car on the east end, and unusual situation. Typically, the power cars were kept on the west end of the train to keep the noise and exhaust to the far end of Union Station.

Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9949A eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on May 27, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Here's a friendly wave from Train #48, the Black Hawk, which also had parts of Northern Pacific's Train #2, The Mainstreeter, and Great Northern's Train #28, The Western Star. The Western Star arrived at Minneapolis early enough to allow passengers to transfer to CB&Q's Train #24, the Afternoon Zephyr, which departed Minneapolis at 2:50 PM CST, for a quicker arrival in Chicago at 9:55 PM CST, but there was not enough time to allow transfer of the rolling stock, which arrived on this train the next morning at 6:40 AM CST. The Mainstreeter's passengers were not as fortunate, and arrived on this train. This combined operation began in 1955 and ended in 1970.

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9964 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on May 1, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 9964 was built in August 1952 (c/n 16705) on EMD Order 2048A, became BN 9964 and was sold for scrap May 28, 1975 to Naporano Iron & Metal, Newark, New Jersey. There appears to be ample power on this three car Dinky. It was the practice of the CB&Q to rotate the passenger locomotives between suburban commuter trains (Dinkys) and Zephyr assignments, generally lasting about a week. At the end of the week, the E's assigned to suburban service were all in Aurora. The locomotives were generally ganged up and returned to Chicago for service and rotation into Zephyr service. On late Friday evening, as many as five or six E units would head a single gallery car back to Chicago. This is Saturday morning, and this Dinky has an extra locomotive which will likely be on a Zephyr in a day or so.

Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9964 eastbound on Train #18, the California Zephyr, at Naperville, Illinois on March 1, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in August 1952 (c/n 16705), the first of six E8's built on EMD Order 2048. These six units were purchased by the Burlington to complete the dieselization of the suburban service, with the last steam powered dinky running a month after delivery, September 26, 1952. These E8's were the first delivered to the Q with stainless steel side panels and Farr Air grills. The previous orders of E8's had painted panels, and some of the earlier units were subsequently retrofitted with stainlees steel panels. This unit became BN 9964 after the merger and was retired and sold for scrap May 28, 1975.

CB&Q E8 9965
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9965 westbound at Naperville, Illinois on April 30, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I've noted on the slide mount that this was Train #1, The Denver Zephyr. There are a lot of baggage cars, unusual for the DZ, so my guess is that this is a section of the DZ, possible the Second Section, since the class lights are not lit.

I was learning to pan with the moving train, which sometimes resulted in a sharp train front, but the rest of the image was motion blur, as seen here.

CB&Q E8 9968
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9968 westbound on Train #17, the California Zephyr, at Eola, Illinois on January 8, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in September 1952 (c/n 16709) on EMD Order 2048A, became BN 9968, was sold to Amtrak August 1, 1972 becoming 351, was retired May 28, 1975 and sold for scrap to Naporano Iron & Metal Company, Newark, New Jersey.On this date the lines of the California Zephyr are interrupted by a Havelock-built baggage car substituting for the usual Budd bagage car. There is an extra flat top coach behind the baggage car, and another flat top coach is between the first two dome cars, indicating that the usual second (of four) dome coaches has been pulled for service. On the left are a few out of service heavyweight coaches which will likely make the journey across the main line to the rails on the far right, the interchange tracks with the EJ&E and the leads to the Eola Reclamation Plant, where most likely they will be cut up and sold for scrap. To the right of the Zephyr is a cut of cars coming off the EJ&E, which passed over the CB&Q just beyond the signal bridge in the background.

CB&Q E8 9970
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9970 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on June 14, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I marked the slide mount as Train Number 30, the Ak-Sar-Ben (Nebraska spelled backwards) Zephyr, a daily train departing Lincoln at 9:00 PM and arriving in Chicago at 7:50 AM. On this photo date, the train includes a couple of new Budd gallery coaches in the consist at the head end. The cars were delivered to the CB&Q at Lincoln to avoid Illinois sales tax, and returned to Chicago for revenue service in this manner.
