CR GP9B 3830 |
Description: |
CR GP9B 3830 at McCook, Illinois on an unknown day in September 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Sorry about the lousy angle, this is scrap yard espionage. Photographers were not welcome at Pielet Brothers, so I had to sneek around. I felt like a congressman on a date: everything was OK as long as I didn't get caught. |
