From about 1976 at Barrington IL, C&NW Waycar 10931 trailing what is probably Train 576 from Madison, WI to Proviso Yard near Chicago. Track to right is for interchange with the EJ&E.
March 1990 on the south end of the Rathole at Evensville, TN. Taken two days later was the X421 in work train service on the Rathole at Robbins, TN.
April 1977 at East Lansing, MI with C&O 3143 safety caboose. The sides were green, and the ends and trucks a sort of gray/silver. The banner reads Safety's Dividends Are Priceless.
Taken this evening 44 years ago on 05/24/1981 at Horseshoe Curve. CR 21053 is a Class N-7B, former NYC.
C&O 90803 wooden caboose at Barrington, IL awaiting its new home adjacent to the old C&NW station, moved to a new location to become a restaurant. Both photos from 1978.
From August 1981 at Des Plaines IL, MILW 992095. A friend took this image, as I'd run out of film that afternoon. He had copies made for me.
Still looks great for being almost 40 years old at the time of the pic! ...and amazingly clean, for the Milw!!
SOU X326 at Inman Yard in Atlanta, January 1989. This caboose was built in 1980 by Fruit Growers Express. I was surprised to learn they were a carbuilder.
Three CR hacks at Dickinson, WV in April 1988. The closest is CR 21289, Class N21, built in 1978 by Fruit Growers Express. The second is CR 18278, Class N9, built 1968 for NYC/PC and the furthest looks like CR 18453, a Class N11 built 1969 for PC.
