Do You remember the train that used to operate at Chicago's Brookfield Zoo? After many years in storage, the three locmotives ( 2 steam, I diesel )and the collection of open coaches, were officially donated to the Hesston Steam Museum in 2002.
Undergoing mechanical restoration, is the replica diesel switcher in Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railroad markings. The 2 foot narrow guage Brookfield, Salt Creek & WesternRailroad, circled the outer perimiter of Chicago's Brookfield Zoo from May of 1967, untill Labor Day Weekend of 1985. The railroad was dismantled in stages for a number of years afterwards.
