CNW yard |
| Description: |
The CNW had a yard just northwest of downtown Chicago, and I often saw power there. Today theres an ex MILW MP 15 there too, along with a pair of ex CNW units, one still in original paint, which I nailed in one of those "hold up the camera and pray" shots taken from the Edens Expressway |

Not UP, not yet anyway |
| Description: |
SP still was a going operation in 1984, and there was no hint that they would eventually be swallowed by the UP. The stillborn merger attempt with Santa Fe was still ahead at this stage. Funny how things turn out. |
