CB&Q E9 9987B
Title:  CB&Q E9 9987B
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E9 9987B eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on June 15, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in December 1955 (c/n 20538) on EMD Order 2071 (the last order for CB&Q E-units), it became BN 9982, then 9912, retired in July 1992, and may now be located in Nashville, Tennessee on the Nashville & Eastern. It is seen here on an eastbound Dinky (CB&Q term for commuter train), and the first car behind the locomotive is a new cab control car. The Burlington's first revenue push-pull train ran only four days earlier, and the crews were still in training, so for a bit of time, the cab control cars were pulled eastbound. Later, the cab control cars were all on the eastbound end, and the locomotives were on the westbound end. This kept the noise and diesel exhaust at the far end of Union Station, away from the boarding and departing passengers.
