CB&Q 9918B With an Express Train at Cass Avenue on a Frosty Morning |
| Description: |
Note the power car at the end of the train because 9918A has no head-end power, only a steam generator for intercity trains. The headlight for the next local can be seen at the next (west) station, Fairview Av. |

Waiting for the Rain |
| Description: |
This has to be the EB Afternoon Zephyr but my notes don't show the train number (see comments below). The exact E7A is unknown. Note the Roundhouse and State Capitol above the last car and the GN diesels to the right. Part of the St. Paul skyline is to the left. The first dome car is the original home-made dome, named Silver Dome with unique dome shape and no lowered floor beneath the dome because it was a coverted coach. The shot was taken at Division Street Tower and the train is about 2 minutes out of St. Paul Union Station. If you look over the last dome you can see the Capitol dome. See comments below. |

Three E7As Blow Their Soot Leaving Chicago Union Station with the CZ |
| Description: |
After idling in Union Station, the first time the engineer notched up all the built-up soot in the cylinders was blown out as these three elephant-style ladies demonstrated. Photo taken from Roosevelt Road Bridge. The tallest building to the right is the Board of Trade, which today would be obscured by the new and larger Board of Trade Building. The whitish building to the left is the Post Office in the air space above the Stations south tracks. It has a hole through it for Architect Daniel Burnhams Congress Boulevard (Eisenhower, nee Congress, Expressway). |
