Rupert, Here it is. The EA in front of the E5-B and the fact that this is the Vista Dome TCZ, leads me to suspect 1949/50 for the date of this photo. The seller had a bunch of other pictures in the Rochelle/Oregon area. I bought 10 of them.

Can you provide the number of one of the eBay auctions for me? I found last week that, if a seller won’t ship outside the U.S., the items won’t come up in my searches, and I suspect that the same may apply here. Last week, after Hol posted the photo of the aluminum panel hopper, he sent me the auction number so I was able to view it and look at other items the seller was offering. Regards Rupert From:

Sent: 12 December 2016 08:28 To: CBQ@yahoogroups.com Subject: [CBQ] TCZ Photo at Oregon I've purchased some photos of Oregon and Rochelle from a seller on eBay called itswickedfun. I see that someone recently bought three photos from him - two of the Silver Star obs car, and one of the TCZ pulled by an EA and E5B from the IL Rt. 2 bridge with the depot in the background. By chance, was it anyone on this list. I'd be interested in getting a high quality scan of that photo and will make it worth your effort if you would do so. Please contact me off-list if you are interested. These 10 photos I'm buying show some very
interesting buildings/things and the general layout in the background.
I'm amazed at how little there is in 1948 or so.
By the way, several photos he is selling
depict the consists of what must be the TCZ with the pre-war cars standing in
between the articulated Gods/Goddesses, and the Vista Dome TCZ cars. Some
interesting history there.
