Dave - I've scanned and attached the glossy 8x10 print taken of my dad M.L. Zadnichek posed with one of the new Denver Zephyr train sets "somewhere" in the Omaha, NE, metro area on one leg of a long wye during 1956. The lead motor appears to be E5 No. 9915A. The original photograph was taken by a news photographer with WOW-TV and given to my dad. Back alongside the train are the conductor and flagman. Perhaps, Pete or one of our other Lines West old timers can ID the exact location. Perhaps, from the consist, some other reader might be able to definitely say what train set this was and date it.
The wye leg was long enough to hold the entire Zephyr with room to spare. For some reason, Pacific Junction sticks in my mind, but the wye could've been elsewhere. Dad was at the time the Assistant Omaha Division Superintendent with his office located in the old Burlington Station in downtown Omaha. I would've been 10 years old when this news photograph was snapped. If you plan to have a future BB follow-up on the "new" Denver Zephyr as you did on the "old," please feel free to use this image if you want. Credit M.L. Zadnichek Collection. It's going to take me a week to fully read BB No. 55. Best Regards - Louis
