C&S E5 9955         
Colorado & Southern Railroad E5 9955 at the AT&SF station in Colorado Springs, Colorado on August 19, 1964, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built as CB&Q E5 9914A (c/n 1301), named SILVER ARROW, sold to C&S September 20, 1961, traded to EMD March 15, 1968. It is seen here northbound at the AT&SF station with the daily unnamed Train #8 which originated in Houston, Texas the day before, and will terminate in Denver at 6:05 PM, a couple hours from this photo time. Note the gentleman hiding behind the pole to the right, unknown to me but about my age when I shot this photo, probably wishing he had a camera too.
