CSS&SB Pullman built coach 7 at Randolph Street, Chicago, Illinois on an unknown day in February 1982, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. The winter of 1982 was a tough one for the South Shore. New equipment was on order but had not yet arrived. As a result of layed up older rolling stock, the South Shore was forced to borrow bi-level gallery cars and diesels from the RTA.

CSS&SB Pullman built 103 arriving at the Randolph Street Station, Chicago, Illinois, March 1980, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I worked in an office building in downtown Chicago during this time frame, and during my lunch hour, I often took South Shore photos, particularly if the company camera was loaded with film (I was their audio-visual guy).
A single MU is nearing the west end of Michigan City with a load of winter-weary passengers. I know I was winter-weary when I took this picture and looking forward to getting home myself.

CSS Acadia is a old hydrographic surveying and oceanographic research ship.
Acadia served Canada for more than five decades from 1913–1969, charting the coastline of Eastern Canada and Hudson Bay. She was twice commissioned into the Royal Canadian Navy as HMCS Acadia, the only ship still afloat to have served the RCN in both World Wars. Today she is a museum ship, designated as a National Historic Site of Canada, at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.

Number 103 was built by Pullman Car and Manufacturing Company in 1926 as a 60 foot combination car with a smoking compartment. During 1943 it was lengthened to a 77 foot car by splicing a 17 foot section in the middle. During 1950 it received air-conditioning equipment and the windows were changed to sealed "picture" windows.
