CB&Q E8 9947A         
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9947A eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on March 10, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in August 1950 (c/n 11701) on EMD Order 2023A, became BN 9947 sometime after the March 2, 1970 merger, was sold to Amtrak August 1, 1972, becoming Amtrak (AMTK) 341 (first), and was retired and sold for scrap August 25, 1976. No extra charge for my self-portrait.
