WICT FP7A #96A - Wisconsin & Calumet RR |
| Description: |
This is quite a boomer loco having bounced from one railroad roster to another. Originally built as MILW FP7A #96A by EMD in January of 1951, it was sold to NRE at Dixmoor, IL around 1989. From roughly 1991 to 1999, it was Wisconsin & Calumet #96a seen here. After that, it moved over to the Wisconsin & Southern as their WSOR #71A with a new paint scheme. Finally sometime after 2005, it was sold to Escanaba and Lake Superior as ELS #600. An unknown photographer took this color slide. |

| Description: |
Good looking color slide by an unknown photographer of the EMD FP7D unit built in March of 1951. No location was given but based on the Lackawanna passenger car in the backgroud, it could be several locations including Indianapolis and Louisville. Any other possible yard where these could meet up? |

LN FP7A #670 |
| Description: |
This all black paint scheme for the L&N freight lcoos was one of the most unflattering concepts any railroad tried. Penn Central also tried it as well as a few Conrail until smarter heads prevailed. Loco history - EMD, August of 1949, Serial #7535 ex-MP 933, nee-CEI 1600 Note the ouline of the MP emblem on the nose. This is a Paul C. Hunnell photo. |

| Description: |
Here is another black shrouded Louisville & Nashville freight loco. The color scheme was one of the worst ever tried by any railroad. Boring and not very visible at night made this a poor choice. Loco history - EMD, August, 1949, serial #7537, nee-CEI 1603, ex-MP 936. Not sure what the disposition of this loco was after the L&N merger. No location was listed for this photo. This is a John H. Kuehl photo. |
