Only a few railroads or museums can boast of having operating cab units working on their property. Illinois Railway Museum easily tops them all with Fs, Es, stainless, freight, passenger, and executive cab cousins gathered in tiny Union, Ill. Check out some footage in the video below, showing the museum’s annual Diesel Parade held in July 2013!
In Locomotive 2013, Editor Greg McDonnell charged respected railroad journalists and photographers to devise a list of “Ten Preserved Diesels You Must See.” Read about Chicago, Burlington & Quincy E5 No. 9911A at Illinois Railway Museum and the rest of their recommendations: Order your copy now!
It would be nice if they repainted the SP and Milwaukee units.
Very good !
I have to go there soon LOVE THE E AND F 'S

Very impressive collection. Being from NJ I haven't been in the midwest for a number of years. Most of this power was in everyday operation during my last few visits to the area and I'm so glad to have photos in my collection from those times.
I WISH I WAS THERE TO TAKE SOME GREAT PHOTOS.
GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR THE VIDEOGRAPHER, WISH HE'D TRY SOME DIFFERENT ANGLES.
ALL AND ALL THE PRESENTATION WAS SUPER.
