NEKP 14
Title:  NEKP 14
Description:  Nekoosa Paper S1 14 rusts away in a long line of equipment at the Illinois railway Museum. The unit was built in 1947 by ALCO with a 539 diesel prime-mover. On the far left is Amtrak AEM7 945, which saw service on the Northeast Corridor before retirement. The shadow in the bottom right is created by the radiator "wings" of Union Pacific B40-8 1848. Behind it is C&NW RSD5 1689. This unit was built in 1954 with a steam generator and was retired in 1981.

CNW 1689 short hood end
Title:  CNW 1689 short hood end
Description:  This ALCo has an interesting history. After "retirement" from the C&NW, it came into private ownership and was leased to the Chicago, Madison and Northern Railroad where it worked the ex-Milwaukee Road branch lines in southwestern Wisconsin (those which survive are now part of the WSOR) in the early 1980s. Then it went to the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad in Ohio (where it was restored to its old "Route of the Streamliners/400" C&NW scheme in the early 2000s, which then faded considerably during several years of outdoor storage) before coming "home" to IRM in 2014.
