The Oak Park Society Of Model Engineers H.O Scale Model Railroad Club. Oak Park Illinois USA. Early April 2011., a photo by Eddie from Chicago on Flickr.
I took this photo recently, at the Oak Park Society Of Model Engineers H.O Scale Model Railroad Club recently.
I grew up on the near southwest side of Chicago Illinois, and have happy memories of the 1960's and 70's era Atchinson, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad.
My Athearn EMD GP 35 shown here, is wearing the blue and yellow Santa Fe color scheme used from 1960 to 1972. The orange 50 foot Santa Fe mechanical reefer seen here, were a common site in Chicago during this era. My train represents, a pre 1970 era Atchinson, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad freight train.
