C&NW 501 is the exUP E9B to be rebuilt into an E9BM by adding a home shop built cab. The steps and doors for entrance into the new cab came from retired C&NW E7's.
Shown here at Rockyford Road just west of Franklin Grove, Ill., on April 23, 1973, on it's way to 40th St. Chicago to be painted after the rebuild at the Oelwein, Iowa shops.
