| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9233 westbound at Naperville, Illinois on October 11, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Sorry about the soft image, I was caught off-guard. This was a light engine move, which was unusual. Usually the switchers were moved in local freight trains. A situation must have come up where a switcher was needed in a hurry. Also unusual is what appears to be green flags flying at the cab end. |

For Box Car Fans |
| Description: |
Looking like a mixed train because of the 40 ft. combine on the rear this day instead of a way car (CB&Q jargon for caboose), this is the Oregon Turn with NW2 9234 doing the pulling. It near Rochelle, IL on September 5, 1964 while making its round trip between Oregon, IL and the Eola, IL yards on the line to the Twin Cities. All the corn stalks in the field have been cut. |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9237 on the East End Way Freight at Naperville, Illinois on June 14, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This train probably ranked lowest in class on the CB&Q on this date. It was a Monday through Friday way freight working the industries between Eola and Congress Park and return, known on this day to the dispatcher as Extra 9237 East. |

The identifier for the Phase II NW2's is the factory installed conical exhaust stacks. The Phase I NW2's were delivered with short stacks, which rose only a couple of inches above the top of the hood, and the CB&Q added straight exhaust stacks to their Phase I's. |

This locomotive was built in August 1946 (c/n 3640) on EMD Order E699 for 28 NW2's (#'s 9220-9247). It became BN 541 and was retired July 1982. We are looking east at the East End Way Freight as engineer Fred Huntley watches for hand signals to proceed slowly west. The Maintenance of Way crew on the ground will open the doors on the Hart Selective Service hoppers and discharge ballast along this side of Track 1. The less used track to the right leads to Moser Lumber. |

Of interest is the Vapor-Clarkson standby heater on the running board in front of the cab. The purpose of this was to allow the prime mover to be shut down in cold weather. The standby heater would heat and circulate the cooling water to prevent freezing. The heater was seldom used, due to the difficulty in restarting the prime mover due to cold batteries and other auxiliaries. |

CB&Q NW2 9244 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9244 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on August 21, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. It is seen here with Fred Huntley at the throttle on the East End Way Freight backing onto the main line after switching the industries on the north side of Naperville. He will cross all three main line tracks and switch the south side. Then he will proceed east, most likely stopping at Downers Grove to switch the industries there. This train switched all the industries between Eola and Congress Park. Note the device on the running board ahead of the cab. This is a Vapor Standby Heater, the purpose of which was to permit the diesel to be shut down in cold weather. This device would heat and circulate the cooling water through the engine block. Usually it was enclosed in a sheet metal housing on the switchers and GP7's and 9's. It was also applied to the SD7's and 9's, but there was enough room in the rear of the long hood to install it there. In practice, it was seldom used because of the difficulty in restarted the diesel with cold batteries. |

The CB&Q Mt. Morris Spur heads north 7 miles from the main line at Oregon, Illinois which is about half way between Savanna and Aurora, Illinois. It exists because of a major printer in Mt. Morris that receives paper and ships magazines. Shown here is the Mt. Morris Turn working in Mt. Morris on September 3, 1964. |

CB&Q NW2 9245 |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9245 at Eola, Illinois on January 8, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in August 1946 (c/n 3641) on EMD Order E699. It became BN 542 and was retired by the BN in May 1983. It appears to have acquired a new all-weather cab window recently. There was a roundhouse behind the photographer, who's shadow is pointing toward the rear truck. I posted another photo of this locomotive dated October 11, 1964, and in that photo the Way of the Zephyrs slogan was painted on the hood, suggesting that this locomotive was shopped sometime between the two photo dates. |

CB&Q NW2 9248 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9248 at Oregon, Illinois on an unknown day in June 1963, photograph by Chuck Zeiler. Pictured in the cab was the regular Engineer on the Mount Morris turn, Hank Fruit, a long time "owner" of the Oregon job. I recall I was told I could ride the turn to Mount Morris if I got there in time. The only way that could happen would have been for me to stay overnight in Oregon. Unfortunately, I was only 15 at the time, so that was out of the question. I also recall that the waycar used on the turn had been damaged ( rear truck had been shoved forward because of an encounter with end of track bumper ) which would have meant a cab ride. I regret not having done that trip. |

CB&Q NW2 9248 |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9248 and crew at Narperville, Illinois, July 8, 1963, photo by Chuck Zeiler. This is the East End Way Freight between switching duties. Left to right: Mr. Fred J. Huntley - Engineer; Mr. Riedy (referred to as the College Boy by the crew), - Rear Brakeman, later, Head Brakeman; Mr. John Sylogye - Conductor; Mr. Norm Herrington - Fireman; and unknown - Head Brakeman. I have two stories about the Conductor. Shortly after this photo was shot, the gentlemen all went about the business of railroading. John however was curious about the spitting sound that the locomotive was making. There is a device on locomotives that separates the water from air when it is compressed, and expels the water automatically causing the spitting sound. John apparently was unfamiliar with that device and must have thought that the drain cock at the bottom of the air tank was not closed completely. He reached under the tank and turned the valve, which he opened by mistake instead, which expelled the water at the bottom of the tank at the full air pressure of around 100 pounds per square inch. The valve happened to be directly over the rail and the expelling water hit the rail and bounced back on John. After he corrected the error, the Engineer looked down from the cab at the soggy Conductor and said, 'Now now, mustn't play with the locomotive boys.' I was in high school during the years I knew John and the crew of the East End Way Freight. So I only hung around the railroad when I wasn't in school, which is to say on holidays and during the summer. I got familiar enough that I was allowed to do certain chores, one of which was to go to the Kroehler cafeteria and get coffee for the crew. This served several purposes; it got me out of the crew's hair, it made me feel like I was part of the crew, and the crew got free coffee. As it happened, my step-father ran the cafeteria, so I took the crew's thermos bottles and filled them up for free. On occasion, there was no time for my coffee services, so John made coffee in the waycar. I had never had coffee, so when it was offered to me, I felt like I should have some, being an honorary part of the crew. Perhaps it was because it was my first cup, or perhaps it was because that old coffee pot could have used a cleaning, but it was dreadful. Nevertheless, I drank it and made the best smiley face I could as I sat on the bunk in the coal-heated waycar with the crew. But I was more enthusiastic about my coffee services after that. |

CB&Q 9248 - Chicago, Burlington & Quincy |
| Description: |
Delivered in November of 1949 as the last NW2 for the railroad, #9248 served well and eventually was absorbed into the Burlington Northern line as #545. The switcher was finally retired in May of 1983. From the markings on the back, this is a recent reprint but no location, date or photographer was listed so the date is approximate. It's parked in front of a small roundhouse - doesn't look like the massive Aurora complex though. |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9248, running light westbound at Naperville, Illinois on March 13, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This is the last NW2 delivered to the CB&Q, built in November 1949 (c/n 8492) on EMD Order E1178, an order for this single locomotive. Interestingly, the very next EMD serial number (c/n 8493) belonged to a SW7, CB&Q 9249, built in May 1950. Number 9248 became BN 545 and was retired in May 1983. Note that it has a standby heater enclosed in a cabinet mounted on the running board ahead of the cab. The purpose of this heater was to allow the prime mover to be shut down in cold weather, and the heater would heat and circulate the engine block cooling water to prevent freezing. |

CB&Q NW2 9400A |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9400A at Bevier, Missouri on August 14, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. It is seen here leased to the Bevier & Southern, arriving in 1962 to replace 4943, perhaps the last operating CB&Q steam locomotive in revenue service, excepting the two fan trip engines. This locomotive was built on Order E912 in October 1947 as the cab unit of EMD's TR2 demonstrator EMD 912A (c/n 5514). The CB&Q purchased a total of 14 TR2 sets, including the demonstrator, and in 1954, sent the B-units back to EMD for installation of cabs. The TR2/NW2's in the 9400 number series were the only NW2's on the CB&Q equipped with MU plugs. It eventually became BN 546 and was retired in May 1983. |

Surely not classic CB&Q in my mind! I guess someone must have decided that another day in the paint shop would just simply cost too much! |

CB&Q NW2 9402A |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad NW2 9402A at Clyde, Illinois on March 14, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in February 1949 (c/n 6564) on EMD Order E1009A for nine TR2A's, mated with nine TR2B's (EMD Order E1009B), this particular locomotive became BN 550 and was retired in May 1983. This was the cab of TR2 9402, a drawbar-connected cow-calf set. In 1954 the CB&Q sent the B-units back to EMD for installation of cabs, suffix letters were added to the units, producing 9402A out of the original cab unit and 9402B out of the returning B unit with a cab. The B's had the revised cab installed, with rectangular windows over the hood on the cab front instead of the arched windows on the original cab A units, as seen here. |
