CB&Q E8 9964
Title:  CB&Q E8 9964
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9964 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on May 1, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Number 9964 was built in August 1952 (c/n 16705) on EMD Order 2048A, became BN 9964 and was sold for scrap May 28, 1975 to Naporano Iron & Metal, Newark, New Jersey. There appears to be ample power on this three car Dinky. It was the practice of the CB&Q to rotate the passenger locomotives between suburban commuter trains (Dinkys) and Zephyr assignments, generally lasting about a week. At the end of the week, the E's assigned to suburban service were all in Aurora. The locomotives were generally ganged up and returned to Chicago for service and rotation into Zephyr service. On late Friday evening, as many as five or six E units would head a single gallery car back to Chicago. This is Saturday morning, and this Dinky has an extra locomotive which will likely be on a Zephyr in a day or so.

Title:  CB&Q E8 9964
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9964 eastbound on Train #18, the California Zephyr, at Naperville, Illinois on March 1, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in August 1952 (c/n 16705), the first of six E8's built on EMD Order 2048. These six units were purchased by the Burlington to complete the dieselization of the suburban service, with the last steam powered dinky running a month after delivery, September 26, 1952. These E8's were the first delivered to the Q with stainless steel side panels and Farr Air grills. The previous orders of E8's had painted panels, and some of the earlier units were subsequently retrofitted with stainlees steel panels. This unit became BN 9964 after the merger and was retired and sold for scrap May 28, 1975.

Title:  CB&Q E8 9965
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9965 westbound at Naperville, Illinois on April 30, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I've noted on the slide mount that this was Train #1, The Denver Zephyr. There are a lot of baggage cars, unusual for the DZ, so my guess is that this is a section of the DZ, possible the Second Section, since the class lights are not lit.

CB&Q E8 9968
Title:  CB&Q E8 9968
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9968 westbound on Train #17, the California Zephyr, at Eola, Illinois on January 8, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in September 1952 (c/n 16709) on EMD Order 2048A, became BN 9968, was sold to Amtrak August 1, 1972 becoming 351, was retired May 28, 1975 and sold for scrap to Naporano Iron & Metal Company, Newark, New Jersey.

On this date the lines of the California Zephyr are interrupted by a Havelock-built baggage car substituting for the usual Budd bagage car. There is an extra flat top coach behind the baggage car, and another flat top coach is between the first two dome cars, indicating that the usual second (of four) dome coaches has been pulled for service. On the left are a few out of service heavyweight coaches which will likely make the journey across the main line to the rails on the far right, the interchange tracks with the EJ&E and the leads to the Eola Reclamation Plant, where most likely they will be cut up and sold for scrap. To the right of the Zephyr is a cut of cars coming off the EJ&E, which passed over the CB&Q just beyond the signal bridge in the background.

On this photo date, the train includes a couple of new Budd gallery coaches in the consist at the head end. The cars were delivered to the CB&Q at Lincoln to avoid Illinois sales tax, and returned to Chicago for revenue service in this manner.

Title:  CB&Q E8 9971
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9971 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on December 13, 1964, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiles. This locomotive was built in August 1953 (c/n 18313). Usually, the CB&Q would have attached a power car to this train. The power car was a modified commuter coach with a generator, but in this case certain locomotives were modified to allow some of the power from the locomotive's auxiliary generator to be routed to the coach's lights. The air conditioning was provided by onboard Waukesha engine powered by four propane cylinders on each bilevel coach. The heat was steam. There wasn't a lot of electrical demand in those days.

Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9971 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on March 18, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This is Train #108 departing Naperville at approximately 6:53AM, a daily except Saturday and Sunday dinky (commuter train) to Chicago, making most of the local stops between Naperville and Chicago, arriving at Union Statmon at 7:46AM if it maintains the schedule. According to the CB&Q Employees Timetable #9 for the Chicago and Aurora Divisions (Effective at 12:01AM CST, Sunday, October 25, 1964), this train did not depart from the Aurora Depot, so it departed directly from the coach yard, arriving)at its first stop, West Eola at 6:40AM, and stopping at Eola at 6:43AM.
