CBQ 2-8-2 #4960 - Chicago, Burlington & Quincy |
Description: |
Another nice example of a 1923 Baldwin built Mikado. Note the fireman standing on the tender platform to the far right checking out the coal load. Not much information came with this slide other than the photographer's name, Glenn N. Pizer. From the double decker commuter cars in the background, I am guessing Chicago as the location but with Bob Campbell's help (see comment below), I now know it's Aurora, IL. Specifics - class O-1A, 64" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 27x30" cylinders, engine weight of 316,780, tractive effort of 58,092 lb. Thankfully, this locomotive is now part of the Grand Canyon Railway. The date is an arbitrary one. Glenn N. Pizer photo |

CB&Q 2-8-2 O-1-A 4960 |
Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-8-2 Class O-1-A 4960 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on August 7, 1961, photograph by Chuck Zeiler. This photo shows two personal experiences by myself. The first is the angle of this photo, achievable only from the bedroom of the house next to the tracks on Loomis Street in Naperville, and I happened to live there. Unfortunately, my bedroom was on the side away from the tracks, so I had to run into my parents room to get this shot. The second experience was that I participated in the railfan safety violation as seen here. The idea was to wait in the power car until the Conductor got busy elsewhere. Then we ran through the generator room and would hang out on the forward vestibule riding right up against the tender, until we got caught, and this was before the canteen tender was added. Good experiences, good smells too. |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-8-2 Class O-1-A 4960 westbound at Aurora, Illinois on July 4, 1963, photograph by Chuck Zeiler. I didn't have enough sense to save the flyer from this trip, so I don't know the destination. The consist was: 4960, C&S auxiliary tender 99518, CB&Q mill gondola 197193, a heavyweight coach, a heavyweight diner, three bi-level commuter coaches, a 7300 series single level coach/power car, another heavyweight coach, and another mill gondola. As I recall, safety railings were welded to the diaphrams of the heavyweight coaches to permit safe passage from the gondolas to the rest of the train. |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-8-2 Class O-1-A 4960 westbound at Aurora, Illinois on July 4, 1963, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Once upon a time, you could ride behind a coal burning steam locomotive, and not complain because you got a cinder in the eye. Most of the gentlemen in the gondola are wearing goggles, and from personal experience, I can attest that this was required eyewear for a fantrip like this. You were also shampooing cinders out of your scalp fo the next few days if you didn't wear a hat. |

On the rear is the Silver Solarium, the spare dome-observation from the California Zephyr pool. |

CB&Q 2-8-2 Class O-1-A 4960 |
Description: |
Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-8-2 Class O-1-A 4960 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on December 5, 1964, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. About a mile behind this scene to the west was River Road. At the time of this photo, River Road was not heavily traveled, and warranted only crossbucks to protect motorists. All trains would signal the usual two longs - one short - one long, crossing signal, giving me a moment to decide if I should grab my camera. Of course, a steam whistle instead of a horn is reason enough to get the camera and get out in the cold. Here is 4960 running light eastbound, likely heading for a fantrip assignment out of Chicago. I have no information about that trip, although I have a flyer for the trip the following week, December 13, a Santa Claus Special from Chicago to "Santa Claus Land" and return. I have no idea where Santa Claus Land was, but it was two hours out of Aurora, and would have been a place where the train (or at least, the locomotive) could have been turned. However, on this day the CB&Q gave me an early Christmas present, my very own personal photo runby. |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad O-1-A 4960 photo runby at Leland Illinois on March 21, 1965, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Obviously, Marty Bernard and I were on the same fantrip, but didn't know each other. He posted a photo here: http://www.rrpicturearchives.net/showPicture.aspx?id=806070 which is a much better version of this shot. It shows the same steam leaks from what appears to be a problem with the Worthington feedwater heater pump. I looked at my slide mount, and it is not Kodak, so I assume I was using some off-brand film. Such were the economics of a 17 year old in 1965. |

Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 2-8-2 Class O-1-A 4960 at Zearing, Illinois on March 21, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This was a fantrip between Chicago and Zearing. Zearing was chosen because it provided the means to turn the train. In this case, it was the interchange between the CB&Q and NYC, with NYC tracks passing over the Q, and a connection was on each side. Number 4960 is on the NYC rails passing over CB&Q rails, in the process of turning the train for the return trip. |

I should have written a letter of complaint, maybe I would have gotten my $7.50 fare back. |
