My old Vectra parked alongside the engine out of 50018 'Resolution'. If you've ever wondered just how big a class 50 engine is... Now you know. Sadly the car didn't fare much better than the 50 & got written off in an accident a few years after I took this photo.
Water leaking out of one of the heads wasn't a good sign at all. Worst case scenario, the heads cracked. Best case scenario, its just the gasket. Luckily, it was just the gasket.
Built 1931 by the Pressed Steel Company for the Chesapeake and Ohio Railway, it was sold shortly thereafter to the Chicago and Great Western due to declining Depression-era passenger revenues. Chicago and Great Western and successor Chicago and North Western, continued to use it until the 1970’s, where it ended it life in commuter service. It is classified as a “combine” because the coach combines passenger seating with a baggage area. The draft gear and much of the vestibule has been structurally rebuilt and updated under the direction of SRI in order to make it roadworthy. Currently, it is used as our tool and crew car for #1225 during our steam excursions.

The last 'passenger' train on the Suburban Line was a special chartered by the Railway Corresespondence and Travel Society in 1951.
