CB&Q E7 9935A
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9935A eastbound on Train Number 10, the Denver Zephyr, at Naperville, Illinois on September 12, 1965, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Built in March 1949 (c/n 8490), it became BN 9919 and was sold for scrap on November 4, 1970. It is seen leading the Denver Zephyr east, about 28 miles left on the train's 1034 mile overnight journey. It was unusual for the CB&Q to leave the MU hatch open and the MU hoses in place on the front of the lead locomotive, suggesting that perhaps this was not the lead locomotive when it left Denver the previous day. One might speculate that perhaps the lead locomotive had a mechanical failure, or perhaps encountered a foreign object somewhere during the trip and was removed, and there was not sufficient time for the terminal crew to close the hatch and remove the hoses.

CB&Q E7 9935A
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9935A westbound at Naperville, Illinois on December 26, 1965, photo by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in March 1949 (c/n 8490) on EMD Order E1006A, it became BN 9919 after March 2, 1970, and was sold for scrap to Precision Engineering of Mount Vernon, Illinois on November 4, 1970. It is seen here leading Train Number 17, the westbound California Zephyr (CZ), the day after Christmas in 1965. Usually the CZ had two locomotives, and the addition of another would indicate extra passengers, and there are two flat top coaches cut in between the baggage car and the first dome.

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9935B westbound at Galva, Illinois on August 25, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 9935B is seen here leading Train Number 17, the westbound California Zephyr. Performing the roll-by inspection is my friend, Chris Burritt, who was employed by the Burlington during the summer of 1966 as relief telegraph operator, substituting for several regular operators as they took their vacation time.

CB&Q E7 9936A
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9936A on Train #1, The Denver Zephyr, at Berwyn, Illinois on June 27, 1965, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Also seen in the distance is E8 9943A approaching the Berwyn station. This is a fortunate situation in that I generally took the train from Union Station, thus should have been aboard the approaching Dinky (CB&Q term for commuter train). I happened to be visiting my friend Chris Burritt in Oak Park, and usually would backtrack by riding the CTA elevated train back into Chicago for the connection to the Q and ultimately, back to Naperville where I lived. But I was running late, so I took the bus down to the Berwyn station, where I caught this scene. I thought I could identify each train, but something is amiss in this shot. Looking at a 1965 calendar, this would be Sunday, which makes the Dinky a Sunday only all-stop train. I noted on the slide that the train led by 9936A is the Denver Zephyr. Here's the problem: according to my copy of the Employee's Timetable #10 in effect on this date, Train #1, The Denver Zephyr, departed Union Station at 5:00PM CST, and Train #225, the Sunday Only Dinky, departed at 5:01PM. Furthermore, the Dinky made five stops before arriving at Berwyn at 5:18. So, I am assuming the the DZ is running slightly late, not an unusual occurrence, especially in the summer, when often not only was it late departing, but sometime an overflow crowd of passengers would cause it to run in sections.

CB&Q E7 9936A
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9936A eastbound with Train #10, the Denver Zephyr at Naperville, Illinois on July 30, 1965, photo by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in March 1949 (c/n 8917) on EMD Order E1006A, became BN 9922 sometime after Mach 2, 1970, and was sold for scrap to Precision Engineering June 14, 1971. It was delivered with Aluminum painted side panels, and during a shopping, the painted panels were replaced with stainless steel laminate panels. Note that the trailing E7 has the original painted side panels. It was equipped with two steam generators. This is an extreme example of panning (moving the camera) to capture the moving subject. Unfortunately, everything else is blurred.

This photo shows the first Denver Zephyr (DZ), introduced on May 31, 1936, and ran between Denver and Chicago until replaced by the second DZ in October 1956, at which time the first DZ's equipment was sold to the C&S and became the Texas Zephyr.

CB&Q E7 9949
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9949 at Denver, Colorado on August 20, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler Built in September 1947 (c/n 4501) on EMD Order E792A, it became BN 9925 and was retired in September 1970. This unit is the only E7 on the CB&Q roster that did not have a suffix letter. There was only one other single E7 (9937A), all the other E7's were ordered in pairs. Also, the first E8 was numbered 9937B, and there was a single E8 numbered 9949A. I cannot explain why this unit was not numbered 9937B.

CB&Q E7 9949
Description:
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9949 on a westbound Dinky at Naperville, Illinois on April 28, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in September 1947 (c/n 4501) on EMD Order E792A, it became BN 9925 sometime after the March 2, 1970 merger and was traded to EMD on an order for SD45's September 14, 1970. This particular unit is numbered above the rest of the E7's, which were numbered 9916A-B through 9937A, and in A-B pairs except for the last unit, 9937A. Logic would seem to have this unit numbered 9937B, but 9937B turned out to be the first E8. To further confuse the issue, there was a single E8 numbered 9949A, with the first couple of E8 orders numbered 9937B, 9938A-B through 9948A-B, and 9949A. So far, I can find no explanation for this sequence anomaly.

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E7 9949 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on June 23, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in September 1947 (c/n 4501) on EMD Order E792A, it became BN 9925 and was retired in September 1970. It is seen here on an eastbound Dinky, with the power car on the east end, and unusual situation. Typically, the power cars were kept on the west end of the train to keep the noise and exhaust to the far end of Union Station.
