The Original F7
Delivered from ALCo in 1938, The Milwaukee Road F7 Hudson's were in my opinion, the most beautiful steam locomotives to grace the high iron. I personally never had seen one, but stories from my father and others brought the magnificent Hudson to life in my mind. Here in a summer of 1944 scene, engine 102 screams across the C&NW at Mayfair crossing, bound for Chicago Union Station.
