Crossing the Rock Island
Title:  Crossing the Rock Island
Description:  I think that this picture is south of Inver Grove towards Rosemount at the CGW/ RI interlocking. You can see the double headed signal protecting the interlocking as the RI main headed south to Iowa and Kansas City. The CGW turned more southeast toward Chicago. When the CNW took over the RI, they now longer used the CGW route between the Twin Cities and Chicago. It was not long before they began ripping it up and tearing it out! Thank God that they did NOT get control of the Milwaukee double track with the Amtrak route between Chicago, Milwaukee and the Twin Cities. Who knows the things that then might have happened! One thing is perhaps true... the RI main south of the Twin Cities thru Albert Lea would probably been torn up also!

MON F3A #111 - Monon RR
Title:  MON F3A #111 - Monon RR
Description:  Built by EMD in December of 1946 as #52A, this unit was later renumbered to 65A and finally 111. According to the info on the original negative, this was taken in Chicago, IL but it's an identical location to another marked Hammond, IN - can anyone comfirm this location, possibly based on whether Hammond had these long switch lever rods to the right? The photo was made from an original negative taken by an unknown Chicago photographer.

CGW F3 113A
Title:  CGW F3 113A
Description:  Chicago Great Western Railway F3 113A in Chicago, Illinois on October 31, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in February 1949 (c/n 5989) on EMD Order E963A, it became C&NW 113A after the July 1968 merger, and in 1971 it was renumbered 212 (2nd). This model is sometimes referred to as an F5 because it was built with F3 components but upgraded (D27B) traction motors, although EMD never had an F5 in their catalog. It was retired in June 1985, traded to EMD, and scrapped by Saint Louis Auto Shredding, Madison, Illinois.

CGW F3 113C
Title:  CGW F3 113C
Description:  Chicago Great Western Railway F3 113C in Saint Paul, Minnesota on February 5, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in February 1949 (c/n 5990) on EMD Order E963A, it retained the CGW road number for a few years after the July 1968 merger, renumbered to 213 in 1971, retired, traded to EMD and scrapped by Saint Louis Auto Shredding (Madison, Illinois) in June 1985. Some folks refer to this as a model F5, however, EMD considered it an F3, built with F3 components in the latest carbody refinement which carried over to the first production F7's. It was equipped with upgraded traction motors (D27B), thus setting it apart from earlier F3's.

CGW F3 115C
Title:  CGW F3 115C
Description:  Chicago Great Western Railway F3 115C in Chicago, Illinois on August 20, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in February 1949 (c/n 5994) on EMD Order E963A for six F3A's. Sometime after July 1, 1968, it became C&NW 216. It is a Phase IV F3, utilizing the carbody the has become accepted as the F7 carbody, although from EMD's point of view, it is the improved F3 carbody carried over to the F7. The spotting difference is up on the roof: a Phase IV F3 has a pair of rectangular grid openings behind the cab for the dynamic brakes (if so equipped), and a Phase I F7 has a 36 inch fan.
