Norfok Western Steam 611 at Chicago IL Aug 1983, by Mark LLanuza Via Flickr: “It’s Aug 1983 almost 40 years ago. We’re on top of the Salvation Army building on Grand Ave in Chicago with NW steam 611 leaving C&NW station going under semaphores everywhere heading west to Nelson IL. A C&NW [RTA ] commuter passes it with an F40 and those engines are more then 40 years old.”

CNW, Chicago, Illinois, 1950s by Center for Railroad Photography & Art Via Flickr: “Chicago’s afternoon rush is underway as Chicago & North Western 4-6-2 steam locomotive no. 514 leads a westbound suburban train on the sweeping curve just north of the North Western Terminal. Another steam-powered suburban train is visible in the distance and Fairbanks-Morse ‘Erie Built’ diesel no. 6001B is on the far track.”
