CB&Q 9947B Became BN 9953 and Then Amtrak 346
Title:  CB&Q 9947B Became BN 9953 and Then Amtrak 346
Description:  Chicago, Burlington, and Quincy E8A 9947B leads an inbound rush-hour commuter run on a frosty morning at suburban Westmont, Illinois on January 4, 1965. This was during the transition between conventional cars (the first several cars on this train) and gallery cars (aka, double deckers). One gallery car is second from last on this train followed by a single deck car which has a generator for the gallery car because the gallery car cannot accept steam from the steam generator in the diesel (eventually all CB&Q E-units in commuter service would be converted to head-end power by BN and pull trains of all gallery cars with no generator car). The gallery car has electric heating, is air conditioned, and had no small generator under it's floor for the lights powered by the rotation of the car's wheels. Conventional cars were just the opposite, needed steam from the steam generator in the diesel (originally from a steam engine) for heat (and hot water in intercity cars), had a generator run off the wheels when the train was moving and an under-floor battery for when the train was not moving for lights. Today all passenger diesels locomotives have a second much smaller diesel engine to generate power for the cars and thus have "head-end power".

Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9948A at Aurora, Illinois on June 26, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This turntable was located adjacent to the depot in Aurora specifically to turn locomotives assigned to the Dinkys (commuter trains). By the date of this photo, the turntable would soon no longer be needed as the push-pull cab cars were arriving on the Burlington.

Title:  CB&Q E8 9948B
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9948B westbound at Naperville, Illinois on November 12, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in September 1950 (c/n 11704) on EMD Order 2023A, became BN 9954 sometime after March 2, 1970, was sold to Amtrak August 1, 1972 becoming 347, was retired May 28, 1975 and sold for scrap to Naporano Iron and Metal Company, Newark, New Jersey. The E8's in this order were equipped with fabricated grills covering the carbody air intakes (just below the roof and above the porthole windows), and painted side panels. Many CB&Q E7's and E8's were retro-fitted with stainless steel panels during shopping. This particular E8 retained its painted panels to the end.
