Three sets of F units, 9960A,B,C thru 9962A,B,C.
One for train 17, one for train 18 and one waiting in Chicago for the following
day's 17 because 18 arrived at almost the same time that 17 left.

On the CB&Q F-units were used almost entirely in freight service and were
almost all painted a colour which I believe was called "imitation aluminum"
which is the white-ish colour that you refered to. I believe that there was
one set of F-units which were silver and were used on the California Zephyr.
Otherwise it was the E-units that provided the power for passenger trains.
