CB&Q PMC 9845 & E8 9937B |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad PMC (Passenger Motor Car) 9845 & E8 9937B at Saint Joseph, Missouri on June 22, 1957 by Dick , Kodachrome by Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. An unfortunate shadow, or perhaps an unfortunate spotting of the gas-electric, at least from a photographic point of view. This photo shows the E unit painted in the as-delivered black "whisker" stripes on the nose. This was the first E8 delivered to the CB&Q (c/n 9674), built in December 1949, retired and sold for scrap Mxy 28, 1975. All the CB&Q E8's and E9's were delivered with black "whiskers", and it was not until 1959 that the red "whiskers" were first applied. This E8 also shows the coupler covers (in the open position) applied to the E's and subsequently removed. |

CB&Q E8 9937B |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9937B at the Zephyr Pit near 14th Street in Chicago on Illinois, March 14, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in December 1949 (c/n 96
4) on EMD Order 2012A for 19 E8's, it became BN 9937 and was retired and sold for scrap May 28, 1975. This was the lowest numbered E8 on the CB&Q, presumably the first one delivered. It was built with Aluminum painted side pajels, and during shopping the panels on this locomotive were changed to a stainless steel/plywood sandwich. The E8 was the first passenger locomotive offerd by EMD with the option of dynamic brakes. The Burlington chose not to include thir option, but instead had a 600 gallon water tank installed in the location that would have been occupied by the dynamics, supplementing the 1350 gallon underbody tank. The E8's were delivered with a 55:22 gear ratio, producing a thp speed of 98 mph. |

CB&Q E8 9938A |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E-8 #9938A westbound at Naperville, Illinois on August 21, 1964, photo by Chuck Zeiler. A spotting feature of CB&Q E-8's and E-9's was the silver painted fourth porthole. I never determined a reason for that. Built December 1949 as CB&Q #9938A (c/n 9675), it became BN #9938. Around November 1973 it was sent to Morrison-Knudsen to be rebuilt to E-8u specs, exchanging its twin 12-567B model prime movers for 12-645EC's, and the electrical system was upgraded. In addition, the steam generators were replaced with a Cummins 500Kw generator for Head End Power (HEP). When it returned to BN rails (now numbered 9901) it was owned by the West Suburban Mass Transit District (WSMTD) and leased to the BN, and named "Village of Clarendon Hills". It worked suburban trains until July 1992 when it was retired, and eventually became Illinois Central #100. It is shown here at the head end of westbound CB&Q Train #1, The Denver Zephyr. The DZ left Chicago's Union Station daily at 5:00PM CST, this photo was taken in August, so Daylight Saving Time would make the time of the photo about 6:30PM. The train is a half hour into its overnight run to Denver, 1034 miles, due in Denver's Union Station at 10:40AM. Running two hours ahead of this train is the daily Train #17, The California Zephyr. The DZ's accommodations included: Reclining Seat Chair Cars (DZ-14, DZ-34, DZ-36, DZ-39), Vista-Dome Reclining Seat Chair Cars (DZ-14, DZ-35), [note; the DZ-14 was either a flat top coach or dome coach - depending on the season], Vista-Dome Buffet-Lounge Chair Car (DZ-37),Vista-Dome "Chuck Wagon" (lounge for all passengers), Dining Car, Slumbercoaches (SC-12, SC-19), Pullman Sleeping Cars (DZ-1, DZ-2, DZ-3, DZ-10), and a Vista-Dome Observation Lounge. The diner separated the coach passengers from the first class passengers. Depending on the passenger count, at least one Reclining Chair Car, one Slumbercoach, one Pullman Sleeping Car, and the Vista-Dome "Chuck Wagon", would be cut out of the DZ at Denver and attached to the D&RGW's "Royal Gorge" train and dropped off at Colorado Springs. |

CB&Q E8 9939B |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9939B at Naperville, Illinois on April 14, 1964, photograph by Chuck Zeiler. I would speculate that this was Train Number 23, the Afternoon Zephyr, also known as the Twin Cities Zephyr. There were two Twin Cities Zephyrs in each direction every day, so they acquired the monikers Morning and Afternoon. I thought about cropping the photo better, but there is motion blur on the lead unit, so I decided to leave it as is. |

CB&Q E8 9939A |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9939A on Train Number 10, the eastbound Denver Zephyr (DZ) at Denver, Colorado on August 20, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in January, 1950 (c/n 9677) on EMD Order 2012A, sometime after the March 2, 1970 merger, this locomotive became BN 9939. In December, 1973, it was rebuilt by Morrison Knudsen in Boise, Idaho, returned as BN 9902, although it was actually owned by the West Suburban Mass Transit District and leased to the BN. In December 1992 it was retired and it is now on display at the Saint Louis Museum of Transportation. This photo opportunity is the result of my parents taking me on a round trip on the Denver Zephyr from Chicago to Colorado Springs in August 1964. While the Colordo Springs Connection cars were cut into the DZ, that took about an hour, I took photos. I spent the next 12 hours behind this locomotive set enjoying the ride back to Chicago. |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9939A eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on January 2, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I was in the wrong place at the right time. I noted on the slide mount that the train was crossing the DuPage River just west of Naperville, however I failed to note the train number. |

| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9939B westbound on Train #17 at Naperville, Illinois on April 26, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Almost a classic California Zephyr photo if the weather had played nice, oh well. This locomotive was built in January 1950 (c/n 9678) on EMD Order 2012A, was destroyed in Gibson roundhouse fire, Omaha, Nebraska, February 19, 1969, retired in September 1969, and finally dismantled in December that year. |

CB&Q E8 9940A |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9940A westbound at Naperville, Illinois on Sunday, May 23, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I lived along the Burlington's triple track main line during 1962-1966 in Naperville and I photographed a few trains during that time. One of the memories I have was the shuffle of the E-units between Aurora and Chicago. On Friday evening, after their assigned runs, the commuter E's would be run back to Chicago for service/rotation, and on Sunday evening, replacements would be run back out to Aurora for Monday morning rush hour trains. The CB&Q rotated their E-units between Zephyr assignments and Dinkys (in CB&Q parlance, the commuter service trains were known as Dinkys). The Dinkys ran outbound from Chicago to Aurora in the evening, so at the end of Friday, the E's in Aurora were run back to the Zephyr Pit at 14th St. in Chicago on the next Dinky, to be serviced/inspected and placed in Zephyr service, and the locos coming off Zephyr service would be assigned to Dinkys. Number 9940A is seen here headed for Aurora on a Sunday evening with three more E's and two coaches. I imagine the engineer had an easy time with the schedule, I believe the loco's were all MU'd, so he probably had good acceleration. |

CB&Q E8 9940A |
| Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9940A westbound at Naperville, Illinois on July 27, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This photo illustrateq a transitional period in CB&Q powered suburban trains. If only two Budd bi-level coaches were on the assigned train, a tap was made to the 72 volt Auxiliary Generators on modified E-units amd the power car (the car behind the locomotive) could be omitted. The lights and auxiliary controls on the Budd cars were electrically powered, the heat was from locomotive-supplied steam, and the air-conditioning was by Wakesha engines powered by propane. |
