CRIP 202
Title:  CRIP 202
Description:  This is an undated slide, so take the date given lightly. This looks to possibly be Car 202, built as a 48-seat coach for "Californian" service. An unusual feature of these cars is that they were built with smooth, painted sides, but circa 1947 all ten of these cars were given fluting below the windows only, so as to better blend in with equipment on Rock Island trains of the post-war era.

CRIP 652
Title:  CRIP 652
Description:  Nine years before becoming famous as the RI's fan-painted Bicentennial unit, we see the RI 652 leading the remnant of the Rocky Mountain Rocket through Pilcher Park between New Lenox and Joliet. From what I understand, the trailers were hauling magazines from a publisher in Des Moines to be shipped out of Chicago. Like the 1275 in photo 2, the 652 survives today, stored outside at Mid-America Car in Kansas City, awaiting restoration (again).
