Remarks & Notes

My final trip to the C&NW 40th Street Shops was just before May 22, 1956, the last day for C&NW steam in Chicago. The only operational steam locomotives I saw on this visit were several 0-6-0s and an E2 class pacific being serviced. There were many retired locomotives to be seen throughout the terminal area. Clearly, the end was near. C&NW E-4 4-6-4 4009 was built by Alco-Schenectady in March 1937 and was scrapped in 1956. It was one of nine built to head C&NW's "400" passenger trains, but before they were even delivered the railroad decided that streamlined steam was the wrong direction and instead bought EMD diesels. The displaced E-4s instead worked other trains until they were sidelined in the early 1950s. Some E-4 tenders were saved and later used in ice melting service in Minnesota at the ore docks.

These are engines that are either already scrapped, are in deadlines, or they're in severe danger of being scrapped. Not everything can be preserved.
