MILW H-16-66 524
Title:  MILW H-16-66 524
Description:  MILW H-16-66 524, Escanaba, Michigan, November 9, 1975, photo by J. H. Nixon, Chuck Zeiler collection. There is conflicting information about this locomotive, the following is from the book, 'Faribanks-Morse Locomotives In Color', by Jim Boyd: The Milwaukee Road was one of only four customers to buy the H-16-66 Baby Trainmasters. They were delivered in two batches, numbers 2125-2127 (later 550-552) were built during August-September 1953, and 2128-2130 (later, 553-555, later still 547-549) were built during September 1953, and all were classed 16-FRS-6 by the Milwaukee. Somehow, the second batch had lower constrution (serial) numbers.

The book does not connect this road number to any previous number, but this web site ( http://www.trainweb.org/milwaukee/roster.txt ) claims that 524 was built as 2128, then renumbered to 553, then 547, then 524. The web site offers c/n 16L-757 as the serial for number 524. Take your pick. It appears that 524 was out of service on January 1976, and sold for scrap to Precision National in June 1976. Finally, consulting the book, "Milwaukee Road Locomotives, Volume Three", by Thomas J. Strauss, this locomotive was built as 2128 (c/n 16L693), renumbered to 553, then 547, then 524, equipped with MU connections at both ends, no dynamic brakes. Only 60 H16-66's were built, with the C&NW owning 50, the Milwaukee owning eight, Alcoa owning one, and TVA owning one.

MILW SD10 544
Title:  MILW SD10 544
Description:  MILW SD10 544, Bensenville, Illinois, April 9, 1986, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Built in October 1953 (c/n 18309) on EMD Order 6516 as MILW SD7 2223, later renumbered 523. When it was rebuilt into a SD10, it was renumbered 544, classed as 18.5-ERS-6 (reflecting the increase in horsepower from the as-delivered 1500 to 1850), and later became DME 544. The Milwaukee Road rebuilt seventeen [D-7's and four SD-9's starting in late 1974 and continuing until January 1976, designating the 21 rebuilt locomotives as SD-10's, classed 18-ERS-6 (1800 horsepowdr - E(MD) Road Switcher - 6 axles). The boxy structure on the roof behind the cab is a Horst air filter, which most of the rebuilt units had, but the last six (556-561. received a lower profile Farr air filter. Also during the rebuilding process, the air reservoirs were changed from a vertical stacked arrangement to horizontal to keep them out of harms way in the event of a derailment.

MILW SD10 551
Title:  MILW SD10 551
Description:  MILW SD10 551 at Ottumwa, Iowa on March 1, 1982, photo by Ken Kessler, Chuck Zeiler collection. This locomotive was built as MILW SD9 2228 in January 1954 (c/n 18773) on EMD Order 5287. It was later renumbered MILW SD9 534, classed as 17.5-ERS-6. It was one of four SD9's (plus 17 SD7's) rebuilt into SD10's (class 18-ERS-6) starting in 1974. The SD10 program involved a rebuilt Model 567BC prime mover, now rated at 1850 hp, rewiring, a chopped short hood, in this case, a Horst air filter (the duct on the roof behind the cab), 26L brake system, and relocating the air reservoirs. Eventually this unit became DME 551.

Title:  MILW SW1200 634
Description:  Milwaukee Road SW1200 634 at Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in March 1980, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The Milwaukee served industries in the Goose Island area, and accessed those rails on this branch line from the yard near Hanson Park which crossed many of the streets on bridges like this. I marked the slide as Western and Milwaukee, but this is neither, so it's one of the north-south streets near Western Avenue, possibly Leavett Street.

This locomotive was built in January 1951 (c/n 12455) on EMD Order 4071B as MILW 2005B, and appears to have been retired in May 1980, traded and scrapped around October 1980. It has a large box on the hood, which I do not know the purpose of. The unit is stencilled: HUMP CONTROL, perhaps the box contains some apparatus for hump control. The TR4B was basically a SW7 without a cab.

It was retired in January 1981, and is seen here at the Milwaukee's passenger facilites in Chicago with what appears to be a bar or pipe welded across the access doors, visible running through the word MILWAUKEE.
