:-)  Smile
Title:  :-) Smile
Description:  Duplicate slide purchased years ago. FW&D E5AB diesel numbers an educated guess. Date unknown. Best guess on trains is Texas Zephyr, Twin Star Rocket, and Texas Chief though it seems be a totally posed or fabricated picture. The sky looks fake, no buildings. The AT&SF E8A looks too big, maybe. Who has the original and description?

CRI&P 630 in 1965
Title:  CRI&P 630 in 1965
Description:  Arguably the most beautiful diesel locomotives ever made were the EMD shovel nosed E5As and E6As. Here April 21, 1965's morning sun makes the 24 year old Rock Island E6A 630 looks almost new. She is crossing the PRR diamonds at Englewood Union Station on Chicago's south side with a SB commuter train. Pigs are on another RI track.
