It became BN 9986 sometime after the merger (March 2, 1970) and was sold the the West Suburban Mass Transit District (WSMTD) August 18, 1982. It was rebuilt by Morrison Knudsen in Boise, Idaho during August 1973 and was returned as 9916, owned by the WSMTD and leased to the BN. It is leading the Denver Zephyr and will arrive in Denver the next morning at 9:00 AM, 1034 miles from its starting point, Union Station in Chicago. |

CBQ 9986 (with green class lamps?!) |
| Description: |
Just out of the St Paul Union Depot which served 8 different railroads & had 23 tracks--- leaving Division Street on the CB&Q & approaching Hoffman Avenue on the Milwaukee--- four CB&Q E8/ E9 passenger engines have the combined Morning Zephyr & the GN Empire Builder with NP North Coast Limited as a second section of the same schedule soon to follow, headed on its way down the upper Mississippi River valley to LaCrosse & Chicago!!! The Burlington ran on the Wisconsin side of the river & the Milwaukee Road ran on Minnesota side, with the Milwaukee Hiawathas & Burlington Zephyrs racing & chasing each other up & down the river valley between St Croix Tower, Minnesota & La Crosse, Wisconsin. The joint track passenger mains were left hand running and the Milwaukee Road freight mains were right hand running!!! Today it is all CTC, the interlocking towers where I once worked & the roundhouse @ Dayton's Bluff are long gone & the glory that was the St. Paul Union Depot is now a parking lot!!! Most people today have no idea of what was once here & the different railroads that ran & interchanged cars between themselves!!! |
