CB&Q PMC 9730
Title:  CB&Q PMC 9730
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad PMC (Passenger Motor Car) 9730 at an unknown location (best guess, Lincoln, NE) on an unknown date, photo by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. I based the location on locations typical of Dick Rumbolz, from whom I purchased the negative of this photo. The date is based on the scrapping date as listed in the book, Burlington In Transition, by Bernard G. Corbin and Joseph C. Hardy. Number 9730 was built by Pullman in August 1928 as CB&Q 730. It was powered by an EMC Winton 275 horsepower gasoline engine (serial 297). In June 1930 it was renumbered to 9730. It was scrapped (according to the book) in February 1955. At least two former gas-electrics were turned into crew locker rooms at yards around the system by removing the trucks and dropping them down where convenient.

CB&Q PMC 9735
Title:  CB&Q PMC 9735
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad PMC 9735 at Yates City, Illinois on June 7, 1950, photograph by P. Stringham, print by William A. Raia, Chuck Zeiler collection. It was classed as PMC on the CB&Q, Passenger Motor Car. In its final years it was used in way freight service. No doubt, a challenge for all concerned.

CB&Q PMC 9735
Title:  CB&Q PMC 9735
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad class PMC (Passenger Motor Car) 9735 at Macomb, Illinois on an unknown day in August 1960, Kodachrome by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. The body was built by Pullman in March 1929 as CB&Q 735, it was renumbered 9735 in April 1930, classed as ED-3-C in CB&Q documents. Pullman fabricated the carbody, giving it their builder's number 6203. Electro-Motive Corporation added the electrical and mechanical components and affixed their builder's number 343. Its original gasoline engine was probably rated at 275 h.p. In 1949, 9735 was upgraded to a 400 h.p. Lima-Hamilton diesel engine, although a drawing published in Bernard Corbin's book, "The Burlington In Transition" specifies an Electro-Motive 400 h.p. power plant. Sometime after June 1952, the boxy radiator over the cab was replaced by a smooth hump in the roof. Most of the 50's and 60's it spent in Illinois towns like Galesburg, Bushnell, and Macomb. Although many PMC's had passenger seating, 9735 never did - its interior is entirely devoted to a 30 foot baggage section and 15 foot mail apartment, and a 15 foot power/control section. Photos of other PMC's show them pulling standard coaches for extra capacity. CB&Q PMC's have also been photographed puling short freight trains and pushing wedge plows to clear snow drifts. Number 9735 was retired in 1967, the last operating CB&Q PMC, and was sold to Southern Industrial in June of 1969. It was acquired by the Minnesota Transportation Museum in 1984.

CB&Q PMC 9767
Title:  CB&Q PMC 9767
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad class PMC (Passenger Motor Car) 9767, at Chester, Nebraska on June 2, 1957, Kodachrome by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in 1930, body by Pullman power unit Electro-Motive Corporation (EMC) No. 148, 400 hp gasoline engine, two 200 gallon fuel tanks, one water tank of 125 gallons. The following is from the book, Burlington In Transition, by Bernard Corbin and Joseph Hardy:

Like most self propelled cars, the 9767 had a varied an interesting career, though perhaps more distinguished than most. In her late years, she was painted a distinctive silver gray and pulled one of the finest riding cars on the system, the Silver Pendulum, between Saint Joseph, Missouri, and Brookfield, where the train connected with the Kansas City Zephyr. When this passenger travn was discontinued both the 9767 and the Silver Pendulum were moved to Lincoln, Nebraska to become the Lincoln - Saint Joseph via Wymore Local passenger. Motor failure due to a broken connecting rod did severe damage to the diesel motor and the 9767 was taken out of service in December 1961. The PMC body was set on the ground at Beardstown, Illinois to seve as an engineman's locker room.

Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad PMC ( Passenger Motor Car ) 9768 at Campstool, Wyoming on May 21, 1956, photograph by Jim Ehernberger, duplicate slide by Al Chione, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 9768 was built by EMC-Pullman in October 1930 ( Shop No. 459 ) as a gas-electric, later rebuilt to a diesel-electric, sold for scrap in September 1966. The following is from the book, The Burlington in Transition, by Bernard G. Corbin and Joseph C. Hardy:

Another workhorse was the 400 h.p. 9768 which, after the end of steam, became the prime mover on the Sterling, Colorado - Cheyenne, Wyoming branch line. Equipped with footboards fore and aft, she did all the switching at the 10 stations of the 108 mile run, and even bucked huge snowdrifts ion the winter. She could handle up to eight loaded freight cars westbound, climbing over a thousand feet. When her motors wore out she was replaced with small road switchers.
