CA&E 436 |
Description: |
Chicago Aurora & Elgin Railroad 436 at Wheaton, Illinois, date and photographer unknown, my best guess is sometime after the 1940 reconditioning, scanned from a 2¾X4½ print, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 436 was built by Niles Car and Manufacturing Company 1906 as CA&E 305, a 52 seat coach. When the steel Pullmans arrived in 1923, it became necessary to upgrade parlor cars as the old wood equipment would not train with the new steel cars. Number 305 was retired in 1923 and rebuilt in the CA&E Shops into buffet-parlor car number 600. At that time the couplers were changed and steel plate was added to the sides, covering the original wood sheathing. At one time it had taken four buffet employees and a parlor car conductor to man the diners, but that was reduced over time. By 1929, buffet-parlor service was discontinued and the 600 and "Florence" (the other parlor-buffet car) were returned to the shops and converted to 53 seat coaches, renumbered 436 and 435 respectively, retaining (for a while) two of the original four GE66B traction motors. During 1951 those two traction motors were removed and the two former parlor cars operated as control trailers until retired in 1954. |

CA&E GE 2001 |
Description: |
Chicago Aurora & Elgin Railroad GE Erie-built steeple cab 2001 at Wheaton, Illinois, unknown date and photographer, scanned from a 2¾X4½ print, Chuck Zeiler collection. Built in 1919 for stock by GE at their Erie, Pennsylvania plant (GE c/n 7688), ordered by the Aurora Elgin & Chicago (later CA&E) January 26, 1920, delivered March 23, 1920, it was equipped with Alco trucks , four GE 257 traction motors, C90 controllers, and weighed 88,000 pounds. It was followed by a similiar locomotive in 1922 numbered 2002 (GE c/n 8067, also from GE stock), and the two were equipped with MU connections in 1929 and paired together. This photo illustrates the second black paint scheme with yellow lettering, and around 1941 it received the new CA&E red and gray paint scheme. Number 2001 was retired June 18, 1959 and scrapped at Wheaton. |

CA&E 137 |
Description: |
Chicago Aurora & Elgin Railway coach 137 at Wheaton, Illinois, unknown date and photographer, scanned from a 2¾X4½ print, Chuck Zeiler collection. The date is a best guess, based on the purchase of these cars from the CNS&M in 1946. This car was built by the Jewett Car Company in 1907 as Chicago & Milwaukee Electric Railway (later CNS&M) 137, equipped with four GE73C traction motors in Baldwin 295 trucks, seating for 54 passengers. It was leased (along with #'s 129, 130, 133, and 134) from the CNS&M in 1936 to permit the CA&E to shop its own cars for heavy repairs. The CA&E re-worked the controls, changed the coupler height, installed electric heaters and made them suitable to run in multiple with other CA&E cars. The leased cars were returned to the CNS&M after WWII, and still in CA&E paint, were used for extra moves. They were purchased in 1946 to help with increased traffic on the CA&E, and saw their last service around 1953. Because of a difference in gearing, they were segregated into trains of like construction. |

The date is a guess, but after May 1942, when the arched windows were blocked off. This car was built by the Niles Car and Manufacturing Company in 1906, one of nine coaches (#'s 300-308) delivered that year. It rode on Baldwin trucks equipped with four GE66B traction motors, and had seats for 52 passengers. Note on the left the incline to the Elgin line. |

CA&E 604 |
Description: |
Chicago Aurora & Elgin Railroad 604 at Wheaton, Illinois on April 5, 1962, photograph by Chuck Zeiler. Number 604 was built by the Cincinnati Car Company in 1913 for the Washington Baltimore & Anapolis Electric Railway as number 39. The CA&E ran short of equipment in the mid-1930's and sought additional rolling stock on the used market. Among those considered were cars from the Indiana Railroad (too rusted) and the Lake Shore Electric (too long for the rapid transit curves). Five powered cars were acquired from the WB&A and were quickly shopped at Wheaton, becoming control trailers 600-604. Then in 1938, the CA&E acquired three powered combination cars from the WB&A, again shopped and converted to control trailers, with bench seats installed in the baggage section. |

CAE 433 |
Description: |
Chicago Aurora & Elgin Railroad 433 at Wheaton Illinois on an unknown date, photo by unknown photographer, Chuck Zeiler collection. Although the date is unknown, it is sometime after the July 3, 1957 suspension of passenger operations, and probably some time later still, judging by the pole reaching for the wire that isn't there. Number 433 was one of 15 cars built for the CA&E in 1927 by the Cincinnati Car Company, equipped with Baldwin trucks, four GE254 traction motors, and weighing 111,100 pounds, the heaviest cars on the CA&E. |

Built for freight service in March 1949 (c/n 6604) on EMD Order E1013, it was regeared from the original 62:15 (65 mph) gear ratio to 57:20 (95 mph) gear ratio, and equipped with Cummins diesel generator set for 440VAC auxiliary power and assigned to Chicago suburban service in 1960-1961. This photo looks weird because of the leaning poles on the left, but the rest of the background is straight, so I think the poles are leaning. |
