CB&Q E8 9948A
Title:  CB&Q E8 9948A
Description:  Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad E8 9948A eastbound at Naperville, Illinois on May 27, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The power car (next to the locomotive, which contains a diesel-generator set for car lighting) was typically on the other end (west end) to keep the noise an fumes away form passengers boarding in Union Station. For some unexplained reason, it has been turned and is on the east end.

This turntable was located adjacent to the depot in Aurora specifically to turn locomotives assigned to the Dinkys (commuter trains).
