Hello all,
I am looking for the address photo that is on the web somewhere. In
the foreground of the photo is a Penn Central Gondola (likely nee NYC
- with a C. 1950 built date) and in the rear a CB&Q composite gondola
in chinese-red paint with billboard "Everywhere West" lettering. The
photograph was taken just south of Chicago Union Station (CUS) C.
1973. In the rear of the photograph the massive PRR/Western
Warehousing freight terminal is being demolished. The CB&Q car was in
a line of cars supplying coal to the steam plant.
My specific interest in this photo is for use in illustrating a paper
on the history of the PRR freight terminal. While I can remember the
details of the photo clearly, I have not been able to relocate it
after many hours of searching, My hope is that someone here will know
the photo -- if for nothing else as this is a rather late date for a
composite hopper to be in service.
Many thanks,
Tom Cornillie
