Old photograph. Baltimore and Ohio Chicago Terminal Railroad EMD SW series yard switchers.

This photograph is "Not" one of My own . I bought this photo during the 1980's at a railroad "Swap Meet". I grew up in Chicago Illinois during the 1960's and 70's era. I always enjoyed seeing the B&O CT's engines on Chicago's Southside, but was never fortunate enough to actually get to photograph their equipment. Today I occasionally "Railfan" an old branchline of the B&O CT in Cicero Illinois. The 16th street industrial spur line. (Now CSX ) I can Occasionally spot the 16th street local in the afternoon on weekdays, but it is UNPREDICTABLE , and very ELUSIVE to capture on film. I have yet to photograph it.
