Chuck Zeiler
C&NW 401
Chicago & North Western Railway 401 in Chicago, Illinois on May 19, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I marked the slide as 401, unfortunately, the car configuration does not match the C&NW 401 as it appeared in the 1980's. It's possible the car was rebuilt between 1966 and 1980, or perhaps the 401 was replaced with a second car numbered 401. I'm still researching. Here's what I found so far, on donrossgroup.net
C&NW 401 "Wyoming" was built by Pullman in November 1925, Lot 4923, as Pullman Co. "Monte Viso". It was rebuilt as "Capitol Road" and sold as C&NW 400, business car, in 1948 and rebuilt as 401 "Wyoming". It was sold to a private ownership and renamed "Carolyn". It was resold to Ozark Mountain Railcar and apparently resold.
