I took this photograph during a July 1988 visit to the Illinois Railway Museum, located in the town of Union Illinois. www.irm.org
A nice addition to the collection of vintage passenger and freight cars, electric streetcars, city transit buses and steam locomotives...is the museum's collection of vintage American diesel locomotives from several now fallen flag railroads of the past.
To the left are two Milwaukee Road EMD "F" Series cab unit diesel electric locomotives from the 1950's. To the right is a 1960's era American Locomotive Company model RS 11 roadswitcher, from the Toledo, Peoria & Western Railroad.
Welcome to my rail fan page! Here you'll find information and pictures of railroad related items from the Chicagoland area, Wisconsin and Indiana. Enjoy your stay. All Aboard!
