CRIP 4-4-2 #1016 - Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
Title:  CRIP 4-4-2 #1016 - Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific
Description:  Not sure but this may be a photo taken by the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific shortly after receiving the 1905 Alco-Schenectady built 4-4-2 Atlantic. Specs - serial #28145, class A-24, 73" drivers, 185 psi boiler pressure, 21x26" cylinders, engine weight of 183,300 lb, tractive effort of 24,699 lb. The class was retired between 1935-37. No date or photographer listed for the photo but I'm betting it was 1905 since each part of this loco shines!

IAIS GP7u #71 - Iowa Interstate
Title:  IAIS GP7u #71 - Iowa Interstate
Description:  Iowa Insterstate Rwy GP7u started out as Illinois Central GP7 #8971 (EMD - 3/1953 - serial #17730). It was rebuilt and landed on the Iowa Interstate Rwy roster as IAIS GP7u #71. In 1988, it was again rebuilt and renumbered IAIS GP8 #471. The loco was sold to Keokuk Junction as their KJRY GP8 #471 and was last photographed in 2022. It's present location and status is currently unknown. No location was given but it appears to be the Rock Island, IL, yard so I have listed it as such. This color slide was taken by Kenneth Douglas and is now im my collection.
