Tom, If I can ever get my web site published again there are consists from '67 that show the F usage. Generally A's only with anything else in the middle. A F3A-U30B-F7A consist would be common. When

Russ - One small correction here; F's as the leading unit account they had the lowest "short time rating". Used to bellyache about having an SD-9 lead an SD-45 consist but the "Cadillac" had the lowe

Didn't the lack of nose mu on the A units have somthing to do with this? (except for the couple that finally received it). I have seen pics of one or two A units trailing. And we used to put #6 and 2

Gordon, CB&Q GP7, GP9, SD7, & SD9 units, (but not C&S), were built with brake schedule 6BLQ. One of the thing that they did not have was an actuating hose MU capability. Many were straight piped thru

You may be a little early with your date. I have a shot of BN 784, an F9A, between two hood units taken 21 July 1980 at Little Falls, MN. Not enough of the hood units are visible to get their numbers

Ray, Thought the questions were about the last years of the CB&Q F units. BN 784 was Ex BN 9818, Exx NP 6704C, Nee NP 7011D a F9A. That unit was a 24-RL-MC-1 unit originally built for passenger servi

Russ...What I meant about the nose MU capability was having an A unit in the middle of the consist which would naturally be impossible for all except the few that received the equiptment. In my air b

Gordon, To the best of my knowledge all NP F9A's and most NP FT through F7 A's had nose MU. The GN fleet was also pretty well complete. The CB&Q avoided nose MU on F's and the only reason I can think

Ken, The traction motors on a diesel-electric motor can only get rid or a certain amount of heat. Beyond that point they will fail by either shorting or the literal melting of the windings. Presuming
