CNW 6847 will trail CB&Q 504 as the replacement power on the "coach train"
Title:  CNW 6847 will trail CB&Q 504 as the replacement power on the "coach train"
Description:  After only getting a distant shot of this locomotive's long hood end on my only prior visit to IRM in 2014, I wanted to make sure to get a good look at it this time. Growing up in Madison, WI in the 1990s, the C&NW SD40-2 would have been common power, but the only other one documented in my collection is a photo of 6886 when it led the 1994 Circus World Museum circus train. I'm glad UP donated one to be "de-patched." Its faded and weathered "old yellow" paint probably looks much the same as it did during its last decade or so of service on the "Cheap & Nothing Wasted."

CNW 6847 behind CB&Q 504 coupled up to the Diesel Days "coach train"
Title:  CNW 6847 behind CB&Q 504 coupled up to the Diesel Days "coach train"
Description:  My wife and I would soon get on board and take the ride out and back on IRM's short stretch of preserved Elgin & Belvidere Electric trackage. This ended up being the only trip we had time for this day, as it was a cool day for mid-August and she needed to go to the car and warm up (despite having one of my hoodies!).
