Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad number 302, named SILVER HOURS, at Aurora, Illinois on February 13, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I marked the slide as Silver Hours Train #11, the Nebraska Zephyr. Note that this photo information has been changed on August 6, 2021, per Bob Campbell's comment below, thanks Bob. This is a 3-car "dinky" hauling 3 deadheading "thru" cars destined for the Aurora car shops. This is a typical Sunday afternoon movement. Location is MP 37. Number 302 , the SILVER HOURS, was built by Budd on Job 96117, ordered in February 1940, delivered in June 1940, configured with 24 dining seat (six tables, four chairs each table, located in the forward section), and 22 seats in the rear parlor section. |
