CEI 2-8-0 #959 - Chicago & Eastern Illinois
Title:  CEI 2-8-0 #959 - Chicago & Eastern Illinois
Description:  Looks like this 1906 Burnham, Wms & Co Consolidation is at the iead of a passenger train or possibly just shuffling it in the yard as it is getting late in its service years to be running the rails in revenue service. Several of its sister have already met the scrap line by now. Still looks good though. Sid Davies photo
