CRIP 118 |
| Description: |
During 1948 & 1949 the Rock Island returned to ALCO and bought eight 3-unit freight locomotives (cab-booster-cab) to compare with the newer F7-model produced by GM-EMD. The latter began to arrive in 1949, with numbers commencing at 100A,B (cab, booster), and ending at 127A,B in 1951. Both the ALCO and GM-EMD units were powered by 1500-hp engines, and both rode on B-B trucks.This fleet of 42 multiple-unit locomotives replaced the older 4-8-4's in mainline service almost immediately, but the newer ones lasted until the fall of 1952, when they were retired long before they were worn out. |

B&O VO-660 8200 |
| Description: |
B&O VO-660 8200, La Grange, Illinois, November 15, 1964, photo by Chuck Zeiler. This locomotive was built in March 1941 (c/n 62489) as EJ&E 272. How it became B&O 8200 is a mystery to me. This locomotive illustrates Baldwin's second VO-660 design, or Phase 2, in which the radiator was changed from a Baldwin-built hand-assembled unit to a purchased unit. This solved several problems for Baldwin and reduced costs. The hand-assembled units (spotting detail was an oval opening on the front radiator grill) had a bad habit of springing leaks after a few hard couplings. Also the air flow was re-routed from a front intake-side discharge to a front intake-top discharge. The radiator shutters were change to air control, replacing the manual control of the previous design. The purchased radiators were spring-mounted to help cushion them during rough switching moves. As a result, the VO-660 (and VO-1000) was increased in length by 10 inches. Note that this unit does not have the characteristic cooling water expansion tank on the roof behind the headlight, a development introduced in 1943 as Baldwin addressed overheating issues. This unit also shows the styled contour sheets applied to the bottom corner of the cab and step from cab height to running board, abandon in 1943 as a cost-saving measure. It is seen here on Pielet Brothers setout track at LaGrange. |

B&O A-3080 9371 |
| Description: |
B&O LS-1000 (A-3080) 9371, La Grange, Illinois, November 15, 1964, photo by Chuck Zeiler. Completed by Lima-Hamilton (L-H) in February 1950 on Order 1212-DE as a stock locomotive and sold to the B&O as number 335, B&O class DS-14L, (c/n 9384), it was renumbered to 9371 during early 1957, re-classed to SB-5, and is seen here on the Pielet Brothers (scrap yard) setout track at La Grange, traded to EMD for new B&O SD35's. The B&O ordered ten 1,000 horsepower Lima-Hamilton switchers from L-H stock, original road numbers 330-339, later renumbered to 9366-9375.The model LS-1000 is not an official L-H designation, but railfan's shorthand for a 1,000 hp L-H switcher. Lima-Hamilton issued specification numbers. I referred to a couple of sources in attempting to identify the model. The book, 'Lima - the History', by Eric Hirsimaki, states, 'On February 20, 1948, orders 1206-DE and 1207-DE were entered in the books. Order 1207-DE was assigned c/n's 9329 - 9348 to cover twenty 1,000 horsepower units built per specification A-3080.' This is the model designation that the Wikipedia and Yard Limit web sites use. A total of 38 A-3080 switchers were built. On November 28, 1949, L-H increased the horsepower to 1,200 by changing the prime mover fuel rack settings, and built ten (later increased to 15) 1,200 hp switchers for stock on Specification A-3170. |

INLX SC 42 |
| Description: |
This is a mystery locomotive, pictured on the Pielet Brothers ( scrapper ) setout track at La Grange, Illinois on November 15, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The Unofficial EMD Home Page lists a model SC ( SC = Six hundred horsepower, Cast steel frame ) numbered INLX 42, built in June 1936 by EMC ( c/n 603 ). The paint matches a photo of GTW 7800 in The Second Diesel Spotter's Guide on page EMD 30. However, the paint also matches the two NC2 locomotives built for the MP, while the sandbox matches a half dozen MP model SC locomotives. Likely it was sidelined by availability of parts for the Winton 201-A diesel prime mover. If anyone has any further information, please leave a comment, thanks. |
