Title: Diesels of the Chicago and North Western
Seller ID: WP115
Operating 8,000 miles of railroad in 8 Midwestern states, Chicago & Northwestern owned a diverse locomotive fleet - from Alco RSD-5's for lightweight branch line in the Dakotas to GE's massive AC4400CW's capable of lugging unit coal trains out of Wyoming's Powder River Basin. For the first time, a complete unit-by-unit roster by Don Strack from the beginnings of dieselization in 1926 to the 1995 merger with Union Pacific has been compiled. Included are locomotives from the lines merged into the C&NW system, including Chicago Great Western, and the hordes of secondhand locomotives purchased by the railroad for its rebuilding program. 400+ photos, including 32 pages in full color, are included. Retail $59.95.
