I think it's an E9. When it was first placed it was painted BN Cascade Green &
White. A BN employee Ken Hill (Coal Department) talked the BN into donating it
to Keller. Notice in the picture that the logo on the nose is the old BNSF
circle with the cross. It was painted Q colors a couple of years after it was
spotted. I worked with Ken in Overland Park, KS and started at Lincoln in the
oil lab. Probably tested oil from that engine many times.

make it. It, of course, resides at the Illinois Railway Museum. I
have never heard of any other of this very small group of locomotives
that still exists.
