CB&Q's Golden 4-8-4  Contributor's Pick!       
To celebrate the centennial of the opening of its Chicago to Aurora, Illinois line, the Chicago, Burlington, & Quincy (very) temporarily painted its king of fan trips, Northern 5632, gold. The scene here is a light-engine backup move in Aurora on May 24, 1964. Note it's an O5B built by the CB&Q at West Burlington.
