Title:  CB&Q GP7 259
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad GP7 259 eastbound at Naperville, Illinois, December 8, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in December 1953 (c/n 18975) on EMD Order 5312 for 15 GP7's, it became BN 1615 and was retired in December 1981. Although equipped with a steam generator, it is seen here with caps on the generator stacks to keep the moisture out. It is working the East End Way Freight, and having finished switching Naperville, it is backing west onto the main to continue east and work the industries between Naperville and Congress Park, then it will return later in the day to Eola to tie up.

Built in August 1953 (c/n 18335) on EMD Order 5242, it became BN 6038 and was retired in September 1983. The rectangular item overlapping the second radiator opening is an exhaust stack for a Vapor standby heater. Most of the CB&Q GP7, GP9, SD7, and SD9 series diesels had these standby heaters installed. The purpose was to allow the prime mover to be shut down in cold weather, and the standby heater would be turned on and heat and circulate the cooling water to prevent freezing. In practice, the prime mover was usually left idling because of the difficulty restarting it with cold batteries.

The CB&Q acquired a total of 80 SD9's built on four orders ( Order 5313 for 20 units numbered 325-344, Order 5399 for 30 units numbered 345-374, Order 5547 for 10 units numbered 430-439, and Order 5549 for 20 units numbered 440-459 ).

Title:  CB&Q SD7 401
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad SD7 401 near Lincoln, Nebraska sometime during March 1961, Kodachrome by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in November 1952 (c/n 17397) on EMD, it became BN 6049 and was retired in August 1983. The CB&Q ordered 12 bare bones SD7's (400-411) on EMD Order 5140, with no dynamic brakes, no steam generator, a single fuel tank, and dual controls, for service on the Ashland, Nebraska - Sioux City line where bridges were not sufficiently strong for heavier power. They weighed 297,875 pounds versus a SD7 in the 300 series which weighed 321,590 pounds. Although a GP7 was lighter at 250,100 pounds, the weight of the 400 series SD7 was distributed across six axles. A GP7 = 62,525 pounds/axle; A 300 series SD7 = 53,598 pounds/axle; a 400 series SD7 = 49,646 pounds/axle.
